Posted June 17, 200420 yr Hi there guys! first off NICE CARS! I'm new to all of this so please easy! Just wondering if any of you haev any decent pics of a badboy on an escort mk6. i'm getting mine done and i'd like to take some pictures to my body shop to show them what it's to look like. Now from what i've seen there are two kinds... the straight angled design (similar to the haynes max power fiesta one) or the curved one. (where the lights are coved with curved metal as opposed to the stright if you get what i mean!) Thanks! Oh and also, whats the biggest sized wheel i can fit to my escort without having any work done on the arches? Thanks guys!
June 17, 200420 yr Hope that helps ya out mate, you got any pictures of your car just now to stick up???
June 17, 200420 yr Author not as yet mate will do soon! how much did the bonnet cost you to get done? i'm getting a scooby vent in mine aswell!!! getting done in two weeks time! also do u know the answer to the size of wheels i can have without work being done? Cheers!!!
June 17, 200420 yr I couldn't honestly tell you mate, cause i got a load of stuff done at the same time, i would think for a good job your looking at £150-£200. I've got 18's on my car, and i didn't need the arches rolling, however i did get them done at the rear just encase. My cars also lowered 40mm, and i have had no problems. Hope this helps.
June 17, 200420 yr Author thanks guys, it's nice to find a good bunch of ppl!!! Any of you lot know what the standard BHP is for a 1.4i escort??? or where i could find it out?
June 17, 200420 yr i have 17's on and haven't lowered it yet and apart from one of my shocks that has gone i don't have any problems at all
June 17, 200420 yr it says my bhp under the bonnet! 90hp lol which is pathetic come to think about it! lol thats for a 1.6i cabaret ( not cabriolet). hope this helps. welcome to EVO
June 17, 200420 yr thanks guys, it's nice to find a good bunch of ppl!!! Any of you lot know what the standard BHP is for a 1.4i escort??? or where i could find it out? about 70-75 bhp i think
June 17, 200420 yr thanks guys, it's nice to find a good bunch of ppl!!! Any of you lot know what the standard BHP is for a 1.4i escort??? or where i could find it out? 75 bhp standard book figure, the 1.4 CVH/PTE is more often down on power than the Zetecs (or so it seems, just an observation) tho if not look after very often
