I have an escort van which I'm doing a fair amount of work on.
I went a different route as I'm not adding to it. I bought an escort estate and swapped every thing over.
I'm fitting, rs skirts, estate rear bumper with spats, side exhaust, electric windows, central locking, air con, mk6 rs interior, adjustable steering column, mk6 bumper with fogs and a integra type r bib. rs2k brakes, 16 mondy alloys. This is a work van.
Rs/gti side skirts are between 2-3 inches too short.
Rear bumper, escort estate rear bumper, going to be cut in half lengthened then more fettling so I can open the rear doors.
Electric windows, central locking, just get the doors mate. wiring for them though. Thats the fun bit!
I'm still trying to work out how to fit a front mounted intercooler as there is no space!
