Hezz Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 looks really good, think i may have to invest in some cossie rims as said a spec list is a must, guessing you've got some sort of aftermarket shocks & springs going on there as the thread in the bay is biiig!

Jordan99940 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Think some half tints would look nice on this, but that might be because I am bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discostu Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 i did have some but i didnt think they suited it personally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor2006 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Have you had all 4 arches rolled out? I have cossies on a gti/rs rep kitted scort and your seem to sit a little snugger inside the arch. Are those 195/45/16s or 40's?. Looks sick but somehow different to my when it should look the same which makes me think yours are setup different. Didn't fancy an induction kit with that decat?

discostu Posted January 14, 2012 Author Share Posted January 14, 2012 yeah it is much better rolled but make sure you get the rear quarters sprayed after there rolled. otherwise the paint cracks when there being rolled and rots away and i dont think an escort needs any help to rot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure there the same size and only use thin ones otherwise you will be a lot of stress on other parts. Its on coilovers so i'm not realy sure but theres about a cm between the tyre and the arche and yes it is true but it looks sooooooo cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
