im still finding it hard to find desent modded 19s!
has anyone got any pics? ive looked around and only found one or two bodykits, i found them in the fast car bible thing, thing is i dont really like them  what car do you think would be around the same size...
i was thinking of maybe sticking a bodykit from another car on it, ive seen some nice vectra kits...
the R19 i should be getting is the four door saloon version so surely it wouldnd be that different? if not any other cars/bodykits you would recommend? cheers...
im finding it hard for information and pics so anything would help!

oh and dont bother with an induction kit, cos of where they are placed they will suck in loads of hot air, drill the airbox, did it too my mates clio valver last week and it made a huge difference to sound and cold weather performance. didnt even drill that many holes either.

drilled airbox inhibits mid range to top end performance compared an induction kit although 0-60 is quicker, i found sealed i/k to be the best option for my clio

thanks people. i do like the standard _bodykit_ anyway... so i might just stick to that and slam it on coilovers or even hydros  if i dont get a kit ill just go for a nice respray... i was thinking blue/silver two tone or maybe just a nice bright blue colour? if anyone has the latest revs the car on the front is the way id like to go, chromes as well!
as for induction kits i was thinking about a p/x viper... my mate has one on his zetec and its pretty good. wont suck in as much hot air will it? cheers for any replys
