Hezz Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 spats on the rear bumper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor2006 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Very nice escort, well firstly for about a tenner sort those side repeaters out, clear would prob go but given you've got the black angel eyes smoked side repeaters might for for you, either or. Spats on the rear bumper too as said. Can't see enough of the other bits like has it got got rear disc'd beam etc and nice front brakes with some painted callipers and a 2.0! Nice cabby though, I do like the white escorts, maybe replace the eyes with morettes, less to go wrong, my old eacort still has those Auto Art angel eyes but they've started to deteriorate, mist up and generally go a bit sh1t.

Rob01 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Maybe lower the front a bit more if you don't mind losing some practicality. Very smart looking cab though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Yeah was thinking about rear spats but then i think it's going to have to be an RS accessory bumper, i just prefer them - and yeah i think its time i sorted the side repeaters. I got a 6 stack CD player 6006 (one unit - not in the boot) last week for £50 (bargain i know!) so thats a little step in the right direction. Also considered side skirts but afraid of water trapping and the dreaded rust!!The headlights are still all good so don't wanna change them as yet and have been dead reliable so far Engine is also standard at the mo Thanks for the posistive comments guys and keep the ideas coming cheers I want you're reg plate lol, i have clear sides too , the car looks spot on tho mate, maybe a colorcoded ghia grille, i always wanted to do that to my white escort He he i like the Reg but then everyone says i'm gagging for it!! lolHmm coloured ghia grill might look ok but i would have to paint the bottom one too to make it match? Not sure what that would look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what that would look like? The sills are gonna rust at some point anyway to be fair, you do get a bit of water in there but im sure theres a way round that. RS ACC bumper is a good choice, get the proper mk6 one and not the skinned one. Dont get a ghia grill the black honey one is far nicer, specially on an all white car, dont want a white or chrome grill, it needs the black.

Apparently there is a skin you fit over your normal bumper to RS ACC it, there is a complete unit which isnt like that, someone gave me the same tip, so im just dropping you the same one.

Naylor2006 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I cant find the topic mate, I think it was in a for sale ad that I posted about it, advice was given however as it was off topic it all got deleted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeWee Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I thought all the rs accessory bumpers were a skin, an extra add on so to speak hence the "accessory" tag? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
