I like it mate, looks really well, but that front bumper doesn't seem to fit properly, and the bumper needs the lights/indicators fitted and some mesh added to the grille.

Clear side repeaters are required too IMO, and perhaps lose the door locks.

Jesus morty, last time i saw that thing it was down an alleyway and it looked pink... credit to you mate!!

 

[Jonny]

really is a credit to ya fella, turned out well, and just a few bits and pieces to do now.

health to enjoy

 

[Graham]

[Chris Mac]

[Rik]

Now you're talking mate, some white 18" comps would be fab!

Not that there's anything wrong with what you've on, they're also very nice.

I'll be the first to admit i'm surprised, i was expecting (another?) shambles of an Escort project but that looks like its coming on well

think you really need the full cosworth widearch kit to get away with the wrc spoiler, agreed some motorsport wheels will help give it that proper look.

[Morty]

was thinking of motorsport wheels but had these and had only been got day before my modified motors feature on other car

but in time maybe i will change to them

was thinking of 18's but i will lose more ot the performance and it will be very incomfortable to drive

bumper fits fine mate
it is just with the grill not sitting right with mess too high up that makes it look like that

only got car back on saturday afternoon
so what to see what it looked like first before i decide to put black or sliver mesh in fornt and rear bumpers

clear silvers on route
just waiting fog light lenses coming so i can fit the indicators into bumper as fogs diiferent shape from rs bumper

cheers mate
well the shambles made me happy but each to their own eh cappers?

 

[Morty]

Nice upgrade mate, keep us posted with mods

will do but no dont some with be having to be seen under the bonnet and boot
in the next while

hopefully getting a turbo sorted to increase the bhp but still in early thoughts yet

 

[Lyons]

Im afraid i would have preferred a bit of money spent on it to get it back to a mint, standard guise .

web stickers staying graham, come on you know the score have to promote my site,

ps cheers for the feature btw report was excellent also,maybe see ya soon for another one lol

 

[CapMan]

very true, afterall i did have a M3 Dakar Yellow Nova 1200 and a Saxo with an Isuzu Trooper bonnet vent in one episode of my foolish younger years

 

[Morty]

yeah but we all learn lol

im sure i wont be doing something as major to the rs2k trying to keep it as orginal as possible
cos from what i have heard there is only 197 of them registered on the rs owners site
that is the facts of the 2 years they only built them for
think one of main reasons is people strip engines out and then dump the car

 

[CapMan]

The 197 is probably a figure for the 4x4 ones though?

Used to have a 3 Door Escort 1.8 Si, they look well if done right. I had that WRC spoiler but sold the car before i sold it.

 

[metro1800]

Tidy job lad. Any more plans for it?
ps were the pictures taken at the substation near the Bushtown?

yeah there were mate

fibreglass install from other car to go in
retrim from other car to go in
alpine touch screen cd/dvd player to go
new set of alpine type x components in remade door cards
then time for some engine mods maybe even a turbo depending on funds after everything else sorted

oblivously if it the one i have best not to sell or write off as value might increase again

 

[Woodcutter]

Morty - black mesh for sure, definitely not chrome/silver.

 

[wingnut]

Not a fan of the body kit but you done well for what it was.
