nice, the 19's look 'about right' in terms of size, 18's always seem that little bit too small for me on the newage but apparantely the 18's are the better size to have

You're welcome. I've always like the EGR skirts, but you can only get the full kit and I prefer other front and rears

It's a really simple and cheap upgrade and looks awesome. For some reason the bugeye ones are deeper than the other (escort cosworth-esque) and really suits the car
