Dean-o Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 Help Need sum advice from any1 who wants to offer. Ive just got an escort whale tail fitted to me mk6, but looks a bit daft sat on 14" alloys and no other parts of an escort cossie. not sure what i shud do next. Either: 1. Get the rest of the cossie body kit 2. Get 17/18" gold monza's 3. new exhaust system Which one shud i get first? Deano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sortedford Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 the body kit, cos the exhaust will need to come out of the rite place of the bumper, so you cant really get that first.the wheels you really want pug offset alloys mate best way to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cossie rep Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 remember mate if you get the rest of the cossie kit the rear quater panel where the petrol cap is may need to be modified as the mk6 cap is bigger than the mk5's or you could get your alloys and when you have got your kit on get 20mm spacers or as Ian said get a pug offset to get the wheels flush with the kit either way it works mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sortedford Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 i would say it could cause a prob, as on the cossie bumper there is a opening where the exhaust needs to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cossie rep Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 one of me mates told me bout the petrol cap problem, said it may be a problem what do u mean with the pug offset? deano just modify the rear quarter before the kit goes on then it should be ok. the offset of the wheels nearly every car has a different offset so that the wheels fit ok, with your car having the wider arches with the original escort offset a peugeot offset will be OK.

sortedford Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 you will need some nylon sprocket rings though if you use pug offset, i can tell u where to get them from though u could get a locking cap like i have, then you dont need to mod the arch, depends on the look your after, as cossie reps is nice and smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
