Default To WRC or not?

Always liked the way a WRC escort looks and considering changing the look of mine.

Dropping front wings off today to have the wrc bubble rolled in, just a bit unsure if these will look ok on there own or if i should go the whole route with the front bumper and rear spoiler etc....

another thing is wether or not malard green will suit the WRC style!!?

Was considering changing colour of wheels aswell.

Cage and everything metal i could get off under the bonnet has been powdercoated in a tungsten grey and imo it looks gorgeous, so that would be the colour id change the wheels to if i did.

Dash is hopefully going to be flocked in the coming few weeks and already have pectel engine monitor/data reader moulded in where standard boost gauges etc go.
