tezmanian devil Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 is that dubs old shell? tis indeed looks fookin lovely with widearches and no spoiler with mk5 back - REALLLY smooth.... 'ghetto booty' i think the jamicans call it lol ...........do NOT put a spoiler on :-) i was thinking that myself, but it has the proper replica kit on, so the rear quarter's sit up abit higher to meet the lower spoiler. look's abit odd without one, in the flesh if you know what i mean? i wont be rushing this one like i did with the last, i want everything onit to be exactly how i want it... so it'l be quite a long winded project, although saying that, once i start i'll proberly want it done asap lol im not cutting any corner's, im going to be striping all the underside back to bare metal and rust profin(sp?) everything i can as i want to keep this one for as long as possible, and just use it as a weekend toy, and maybe give it a pasteing round a few track day's, centainly wont be my daily drive like the last one because that just got wrecked cant wait to drive it, missing not being able to drive an escort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
