Help a newbie with some mod questions...

[fudgeford]

Hello all powerful ones!

 

I'm picking up my Mk 5.5 Escort Cab tomorrow morning! I've been scanning the net for answers to the following questions, but I'm stuck! I'd really appreciate it if I could get your insight!

 

1. I really want to fit some RS2000/GTi side skirts. Anyone know if they're a good fit for a 5.5 cab?

2. I also REALLY want an RS2000 power bulge bonnet. What do you lot reckon the best way of me doing this is? If I source a bonnet, will it fit? (thinking about the change in the oval between Mk5 and Mk5.5). Or should I get the original bonnet modified?

3. Rear spoilers. What are my options? Will a regular Mk5 one fit the cab?

 

I bet these questions sound really stoopid to you guys, but I can't find a good resource on the web to read about these kinds of mods. If you could point me in the right direction, that would be great!

 

Great website by the way!

 

Thanks.

hello and welcome to the bb

 

1. yep no probs on fitting them

2. yep no probs again as far a i know, part from the grille, get a cossie style one or rs2k one

3. a normall one will fit, just upto you on the tonnes of different styles youd like if you go aftermarket

Thanks a lot for your help!

 

It all sounds good then. Looks like a cossie grille and RS2000 bonnet will be the way to go!

 

I'm going to get a set of side skirts and rear spats straight away - anyone got any recommendations about who should get my cash?

 

I guess sourcing the bonnet will be the trickiest of the lot...

 

Many thanks!

 

Fudgey.
