havent really done much latly to the underside... treated it to some new alloys though..

Image
Image
Image

and a few other pics i took of the front end

Image
Image
Image

also my brembos,, might get a set of AP 6 pots + 355mm AP disc though, i only had hese brembos so i could still fit the original 16" alloys on if i ever fancied going bk to standard.. but i doubt that will happen so im saving for the APs

Image

couple of frst pics aswell :P my shed :lol:

all comments welcome :D

I thought the shell was pretty exceptional TBH, even though it is late for a Cosworth, it's still 15 years old.

A lot of 2002 Fiestas are rotting!

may be to where its built too think mine was built abroad there was rumours that the metal was better abroad the uk built ones at times suffer... mine had some rust but not that bad was just shocked as most ones in your colour i see are very tidy, but you certainly got it back to scratch :D ....

take a look on escortrscosworth.com if your not on there, i'm in the middle of getting my car upto a 500-550 hp car hoping to have updates soon as bits being done / changed and that just now... hoping to have the bottom done too in the next month or 2 funds permitting :oooh: ..
