Well its not an XR8 one


Its not an XR4Ti Touring car one


Im convinced its just an aftermarket bodykit part from back in the day.

Probably part of a aftermarket kit addition for a XR4i. There were several kits available but I really can't remember that design spoiler, maybe not for a Ford.

Anyone got a pic of this Aero pack?
Ive never seen it, and the Merkur race cars certainly didnt have it, hence the pic i put up earlier.

i always assumed it was a cut-n-shut.

rememeb the part number could be of the original spoiler that got chopped up. you can prove that if it turns out the part no. is for an XR4i or for a 3dr cossie

I was going on an old CCC article on the Merkurs where it mentioned that Ford missed the deadline for homologating the Merkur Aeropack but there isn't a picture of it so I may not be the same spoiler. I'll have a look through my old comics tonight
