been trying 2 find 1 for years m8. there called eggenberger optional spoiler self adhesive mainly fitted 2 foriegn cars cus they never had upper spoiler cant seem 2 find out much more than that m8 maybe we could all club 2gether and get a copy made and do a group buy. some people think there from a company called wolf in germany but contacted them and they say theve heard nothing about them

Have to say that these are genuine Wolf parts from the company with that name in Germany and they are obsolete now and will never again be produced.

Why do I know this --> because I bought the VERY last one and sold it on to THE RADMAN on here. I also think that he has thrown it away.

You'll never ever find another one m8.
Only if you can have them reproduced.

Best of luck because they look SOOOOO nice.
Still banging my head for not keeping it.

as speedy says,these were made by wolf racing,i got mine off him,but when it was fitted to the car it looked crap,like a tacky halfords add on,lol, so i blended it all in to make it look like a one piece spoiler,[nice job i made as well] the problem then though was that it looked like a replica cossie lookalike thing so i did the decent thing and got rid,the lesson here is dont mess with the bodywork,you cant improve the original looks in my opinion

I agree with THE RADMAN, you can't improve on the Escort's body. Ford done a top job on it, and I doubt even they will ever make anything to come close to it again.

Still looks like its been built from a box with bits added to it at a later date, awesome car I know but no where near as smooth as the Escort Cosworth's!

There used to be a grey foreign Escos in the back of PF with that little extra spoiler, i've always wondered what it was, but must say the grey on it was looked to fookin nuts with it!

Looked a real nice job too!

Also everyday people won't be able to afford a GT, most people can get an Escort Cosworth at some stage.

They could, but with non-existent parts support and more and more cars beeing broken, driving one may be soon real privilage and Cossies will become properly rare.

I would say Cossie's are properly rare already mate, I mean how many do you see on the road like RS500's and Escort Cosworth's!

I don't even see a great deal of Sapphire's or RST's around here!

I only ment it may not be such a rare car from UK perspective, but if you look at the matter in a wider scale they are properly rare. This is of course partly British car but your country has always been specially filled with exotics which are really rare in other countries.

I reckon that it genuinely is a rarity to see RS's knocking about still mate, obviously there's alot in this country but all I was getting at is that there few and far between now, and I agree with you that the more people crash/break and steal them, the numbers will only decline with time

I need to get one quick really! lol Anyone got a spare 15 grand? Please note that all loans are non-refundable?
