smithyandco Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 its unique in that only Escort cabriolets were made in spring violet purple.Aka... Pink!(Someone had to say it!!) Seriously... It looks good! Much better than your previous cars. The mods are subtle enough to look almost like a Ford optional bodykit yet different enough to be unique. I wouldn't be embarrassed driving that thing (Unless that exhaust makes it sound like a chavv'ed up Subaru) Only one fault I can see... The rear bumper doesn't appear to hang quite right on the drivers side. Looks like there is a 1" gap between the bumper and the body near the wheel arch.

LiamGTR Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 All you need now is a Cupra R splitter mate, an EvoTech bumper was made for one of these and looks so good. Either buy 1 2nd hand or go direct to Seat mate they are only £20 I like how the whole car is the same level at the bottom, usually the ST rear bumper is far lower but those skirts are deeper than GTI's, looks really good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig855S Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Looks great, much better than the scooped hatches you've had. IMO its crying out for coded mirrors/sidestrips/doorhandles/bootlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamGTR Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 (edited) Mate do you want me to photoshop you some colour coded bump strips etc.? I'm not convinced it would look good I think you should keep it how it is... they break the colour up a bit...too much of a good thing is bad for you afterall...

I'm not convinced it would look good I think you should keep it how it is... they break the colour up a bit...too much of a good thing is bad for you afterall...The whole point of leaving them black was due to a whole purple & black theme I aimed for (I have a black hood you see lol).So thats where the black lights front/back, black wheels & black mesh comes in, the intention was always to keep both the mirrors & bumpstrips black too. The whole car hasnt had a proper polish yet & the blacks will be much deeper after treatment. Thanks for all the comments all are appreciated.
