WAY TO GO YOU!!! but i already did that... if you look theres people saying i have to cut them, some people say they bolt on, some saying you have to drill new holes.

I have done it and here is a little run down!

Assuming your OEM one is off, make sure you save at least 2 original clips and ALL the clips/screws that are underneath the side skirt too...

Only the first two clips line up (again, i dont know WHERE or WHY people say that three, or one in the front, and one in the back line up, etc, but if your car is ORIGINAL, only the first two line up

remeber that three screws/clips that were from the bottom of the sideskirt..??? Those are the ones that hold the skirts tight in place. They don't line up PERFECTLY, but with some effort, you will be able to make em line up. Not A LOT of effort, but some...Any questions let me know

Here is a pic to show they do line up with the body but if you want to run OEM mudguards you need to use EK front ones
