Thought about trying to get someone to make these fit for me a while ago and in this months max power there is a corsa with them. Seeing as though my car is getting sprayed now ive decided on thinking about this idea again cause ive been waiting for my animal kit for about 3 months now!!!!!!!!
Just wondered what everyone thought an escort cossie kitted fiesta would look like?!!!

My old fiesta had an genuine ford Escort Cozzy bodykit, cut down and fitted to it (back in the days when they were no fiesta cozzy kits). I thought it looked awesome !!! I wouldn't recomend doing it to anyone though as it took weeks of hard work and swearing :wink:

Failing that I've just bought a Fibresports front bumper for my new fezzy and it looks luverly and without hassle

Go for it. Cos that corsa looked mint, but a fezza with cossie arches, front bumper would be a beast. Minter

PLease dont tell me you spent money on that bloody animal kit...
Stick with the cossie kit if anything, one problem you may have though is that if it is lowered, you wont be able to get that big a rim on the car because the new arches are molde into the bumper out of fibreglass and the wheels destroy the kit cos it aint flexable like the turbo arches

yeah i did order the animal front bumper but cancelled it yesterday..taking too arrive.
I take it you mean the fibreglass arches....the ones im after are the proper steel ones.....rang Ford yesterday..
Front arches 238 + VAT each !!!!!!!
Rear quarter panels 580+ VAT each !!!!!
Tried to find somebody breaking one but had no luck at all !!!!!
Getting the real arches brazed and mig'd in so theres no problem with cracking.....should be able to fit a decent size under there
