Right, i shall be getting a car in the next week or so to tide me over for now, but thats not to say it'll stay standard
Its an escort estate in diamond white, 1.6 Zetec.A good mate of mine is selling it for bargain price to help me out

Heres a couple of cheeky pics






heres the first additions



some sort of fiat silver but in some lights it has a bluey greeny shimmer to it. Not so sure about the colour yet but i'll wait till they are on the car. And excuse the dustyness, they are fresh from the bodyshop.

just need the surf bus now and were rocking:drivin:
Plans are dump it on its balls and GTi sideskirts.
And watch out for a wood effect roof............................

[Dave G fsi]

lol, love it mate!

[EUFez]

I'm liking this already.

[- Danny Boy -]

Slam it to the ground

[Ratspeed]

Got the car today, Just gonna use it as a runaround for a bit.............................









So, next couple of weeks the plan is:

1, get it polished up all nice and shiney.

2, Paint the rubstrips white and re-paint the N/S wing mirror as its scratched and sort a little bit of surface rust on the rear arches

3,Clean up the bay, paint the rocker cover white, fit the Cotton Green of the RS along with the breather pot and filter and make a cold air feed

4, Fit the dark RS rims (if the colour looks good on it, if not re-paint them straight dark silver)

5, get a finesse grill and paint it gloss black

6, longer wheel studs on the back, 15mm spacers

7, fill it with sounds

Then after Xmas i'll be :

1, Sourcing,painting and fitting the RS/GTi sideskirts

2, Lowering it, quite a bit

3, try to find a rs2000 interior but i will settle for GTi interior

4, wood effect vinyl the roof.....................no, i'm not joking

[mrorange2]

Sounds good mate look foward to seeing it. Ill pop round soon as i can get brace and have a chat about rs

[jonyb4]

[jayrs]

[mtbdean]

Ratty

[white diamond]

seems to me like this is getting a hint of euro style

[happypaul]

Doesnt sound euro, verging more on rat IMO

Wood effect fablon will be perfect for the roof

Will be cool to see!

[dangerousdave]
