Nice...Love the install...

 

[Gambit]

ud really need to lower the front a hair more, to cope with extra weight of the install!

wheels look sweet. rear spoiler aint to my liking though. is it a proper WRC replica spoiler? i dont remember them being that drastic?

 

[Nicky]

A nice wee cage and youd be sorted me thinks

 

[Boydie]

is there no front grill? shouldnt have sprayed the lower spoiler

 

[jonny106]

Looks well although i would rather go all WRC if i had the option.White wheels on a red car always looks good.......i may follow suit.

I cant answer if its a rep or not but i do know that it's a MK6 on a mk5 bootlid so it does look a little funny imo

Other than that its a nice wee car, came a long way from the 1st pics you posted up at the start of the year of the car down the side of someones house!

Looks well lad

Yeah there is a grill there mate although i think the previous owner had it butchered to fit the standard bumper. Have a new grill painted and all just have to pick it up.
What lower spiler are you on about? the splitter at the bottom of the front bumper

 

[Boydie]

yeah which is usually black trim on a cossie

Yeah im thinking that myself although im trying to price coilovers at the mo to sort that problem out.

I dunno, i like the wheels and i've seen the car in the flesh (think i passed u in the cossie down the motorway one sunday night) but i can't warm to it, the mix and match bumpers just don't do the car any favours, maybe full on WRC kit would do it or maybe i'm gettin old and prefer oem styling!

Mortys car has seen a lot more work to it than most escorts have seen in there life for start u are only judge the car from the outside the inside has
had a lot of work Not mention the first person in ireland to own a EXILE sound system which is the best sound system i have heard

Also like the new wheels mate lookin well

 

[Morty]

Cheers for the comments both good and bad. The car is booked to go away at the end of January for a whole new look on the outside. Im sure John Peden will work wonders with it.

 

[Paul W]

May have 2 take a wee run up to Johns to see it, if your leaving it with him expect a totally different exterior!!

 

[Morty]

Yeah i have went over some plans with him, although none of them are cemment at mo. Have plenty of time now to think what i want to do with the rest until then.

 

[Steve]

very nice morty, u done anything to the engine?

not a big fan of the rear bumper but the rest is spot on, love the white wheels

 

[skiman_1]

Get the cosworth front bumper, whatever rear bumper u have on, rear spoiler etc off and it would look loads better... looks a bit wack imo.

What sort of plans?? Im leaving the Ibiza with him sometime in the new year to get everything smoothed if all goes to plan

17" white comp mo's on a red ibiza, pure sex!!! lol ive been tempted alot to paint ma cupra wheels white and try n get my hands on some really small red seat sport decals.

 

[veedu8mad]

Hey Mate are u planin on going the same with the suspension that
john is well knowin for or body work

looking forward to seeing it with the new look planned

 

[Morty]

Not sure on the Hydros yet. depends where he can fit it all due to me having no boot space. We have talked about putting the rams on the inside of the roof but all depends really.

 

[Paul W]

Airbag suspension would work well

 

[Morty]

Will have to see my plans of what i want to do are changing daily. My current idea is to turbo the car and change the front and rear bumpers and go for a WRC look with a front mounted intercooler to set it all off.
