I've also test fitted my Irmmy spoiler.
Not sure which way to go with fitting.
Hanging over the end?

...or flush?

Opiniions welcome.

looks like a 40mm drop same as mine, your gap between the tyres and arch is roughly the same as i have with my 18's

Nah, I've colour coded the originals and I'm happy at that. Aftermarket skirts look nice but you're stuffed if you need to jack the car up away from home unless you cart a trolley jack round with ya
