JC Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Nice RS, not too many in that colour, actualkly not many rs2k's left! was wondering why you were breaking your escort, now i understand! I know what you mean about power delivery, when i went from a worn 1.6 to a new 2.0 was unreal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidrick Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Marshy, you're the #1 person that I wanted to see in a nice Escort. Your previous projects and posting warranted something that you could make a go of rather than a shitter. Can't wait to see the man pictures that will follow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshy Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 thought id take advantage of the very rare good weather we've been getting and fitted my lower cossie yesterday and today the dreaded tinrot has got to the bootlid http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120527-00121.jpghttp://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120527-00122.jpghttp://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120527-00124.jpghttp://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120527-00123.jpgso i cleaned that up and treated it etc...then set about fitting the lower cossie spoiler..(this time i stayed away from the mastic as it made a mess of the bootlid last time)and bolted it to the bootlid using the existing holes..im gonna add a seal of silicone around the edge later http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120529-00125.jpgfitted my mudflaps too..(still gotta put the fronts on)http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120529-00128.jpgalso a coupla of random pics http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120529-00126.jpghttp://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/marshy61278/Bradford-20120529-00127.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I love just the cossie lower. The best look for a mk6 IMO. Not sure I would have ket the boot lid tough without some cutting and welding. Did it look okay after the treatment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 yeah it wasnt as bad as i originally thought its mainly round the wiper hole..and after treating it it looked a lot cleaner.. only time will tell really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
