I guess it depends on wether your using the default VM theme's or using a 3rd party template/theme for virtuemart?

If your using a 3rd party template/theme, then the overide files should be in templates/yourtemplate/html/com_virtuemart
If you are using the standard VM theme then you can create this path and add template override files here.

Within your override files you can add inline CSS to space these area's out (But this is a bit ugly), or better still create a custom.css file, create some new classes with padding, margin spacing, etc and apply these to the areas that you want spacing out.

If you don't already use it, then you should be using Firebug with firefox, to take a look at whats going on with your current CSS for the areas you want spacing out & if you don't know about template overides, there are some great documents about these in the Joomla Docs website, which can be found easily in a search engine.
