LJ_is_here Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 now then folks, nice site. i´ve just got my mums Mk 5 1.6 16v Lx, which is in pure mint condition, as she´s had it since new and she´s a bid, and we all know how bids look after there cars. anyway, to be total frank with you it looks a bag of shite as standard, never seen a mod to date. it has 14" Shite rims, i´m going for Wolfrace Spirit, and as i´ve read up, 17´s will fit no probs, but i don´t want the norm, 18´s are on the horizon, will they fit or is that just being greedy? will i need arch mods etc? I´ve ordered the new Delta Mk 5 kit, front, rear bumper and skirts. WRC spoiler will look flush, how do i get rid of the cheesy grey plastic skirts on the side of the doors and that Shite indent line running all the way through in the middle?? cheers lads, watch this space. http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/mig/uploaded3/Escort.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cossie rep Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 18s should go on without any arch work needed mate. the strips i believe are just stuck on so hair dryer to melt the glue then pull it off, and as for the bottom grey bit havent got a clue. P.S. Thik the car will look great once done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJ_is_here Posted August 20, 2002 Author Share Posted August 20, 2002 your kidding mate, 18´s will just slide right under without a single hassle, and how much will i be able to lower it buy, i must say that there is a massive gap there now, in between the Shite 14" rims. http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/mig/uploaded3/l_spirit.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
