Default my silver bonus 11 "update"

hey guys dont have many pics of it yet but when i bought it it was a bog standard 1.1 escort bonus

mods ive done so far
ESCORT COSWORTH wheels (original not mondeo crap)
rs archs and side skirts (originals)
rs turbo recaro front and rear seats (88 spec)
90 spec rear rs spoiler
lowerd 60 mm on apex shocks and springs
black rear lights
red carpet (will be removing due to looking major gay!)
and a very full boot including
2 x jbl 12 inch 1000 watt subs
2 x jbl gto 400 watt amps
jbl 6x9's
jbl component set
1 x splx 1000 watt amp
and a jvc headunit

think that about covers it for the min
here is the pic as a teaser guys


please note car needs a fair few bits of body work doing and yes i do plan on putting rs 90 spec front and rear bumpers and bonnet on and a nice back box untill i can aford to put a turbo lump in

then it will be sprayed black in the not so distant future hopefully

any comments or crit is welcome

so did i mate lol but ive done a registration check and it came back as a 1.1 and so i think it must originaly be a 1.1 as no 1 would put a smaller engine in would they?

and as much as i want to keep ti silver i also dont want to keep it silverfor some strange reason my mind wants me to spray it black so im spraying it black but i dunno about bumpers now should i go 90 or 88 spec?
