Looks a bit poor IMHO, is obviously a rep not even on the right Mk of escort.
1) Door handles
2) rear 3/4 where it meets the lower spoiler looks wrong
3) Front wing behind the wheel looks too short
4)Rear bumper looks like a copy, not deep enough, dosn't cover the towing eye which is a screw in type behind a cap on the Escos ?
5)Front bumper looks like an illusion item, might be due to the mesh. Dosn't meet the grille properly
6) Coin tray where the clock/ temp and ice warning lights should be.
7) Dead give away, it is on an R plate!
8) No lower splitter
hi mate thanks for the honesty i used 2 have a 4x4 saph cossie 425bhp oilpump went on it and fucked the engine then me an mrs moved into a house so had to down grade couldnt afford a real escos so built this 1 stands me arnd 6grand ur points well
1 door handles there being changed
2 rear quarters are gen cossie so dont see how they can be wrong but hey thats ur opinion
3 front wing?
4 rear bumper i wasnt to sure of myself tbh so ill look into that but as its got a metal toing eye on the back dont think theres much i can do about that unless i cut it off and put a cap in bumper where toing eye supposed 2 b which isnt a problem
5 front bumper exact mould from a genuine cossie so it is as good as they get but ur rite i do need to change the mesh still trying to source it
6 coin tray clock is now in just havnt updated pics lol
7 r plate i have private reg just havnt fitted it yet
8 lower splitter it has got 1 just hasnt got the lower lip as car is 2 low atm i have it just hasnt been fitted and lower splitter is genuine along with hockey sticks
