My Mk5b Project
I have now had my Escort a year and as some of you know, my car has changed a fair bit, especially this last month.
This is how it looked when i bought it:
Not very exciting
First thing to change were the wheels (and about a bottle of Back-To-Black):
Then i had it lowered 35/40mm, fitted a laguna splitter, clear oval repeaters and a black messed grille. I also got me some new number plates:
It stayed like that till last month, when (after about 6months of collecting parts) some major changes took place.
I fitted a Mk5 RS2000 front bumper, Mk6 Rear bumper with Spats and got a Peco BB2 back box thrown on (only cos the standard one just wouldn't do).
Also for those that have seen it, i have a few areas of rust and dintage:
Then I dropped it off at a bodyshop (with the Mk5 RS side skirts shoved in the back). It was gone a week ;(
But when i got it back....
I have never smiled so much
As you can see i also fitted Mk6 wing mirrors and re-used my laguna splitter on the new bumper
I am so happy with the way it now looks.
All the rust and dents are gone and its looking fooooking sexy
Whats next i hear you ask...
Well its going in for its MOT on thursday (
), then the following week i will fit cossie headlights and side lights.
Also coming are new tyres and rs2000 brakes. I still have loads of plans left for the 'scort but they an only be done when i have time and money (mainly money :P).
Anyway, what do u guys think?
