I wouldn't change a thing. Think it looks lovely.

Seems strange seeing the battery on the left!

Many thanks and yes, that car is LHD version because here in Finland only RHD cars are mail mans and some nissan skyline drivers

I will try ambers and new headlights in this summer because i like original radiant red with o.e.m look. I think i cant install spotlights because i have airtec large intercooler.. am i right? Would patten ambers be fine or should i purchase original ford ambers?

I would leave the exhaust as it is and just add a 90spec rear spoiler and a pair of proper clear indicators not light smoked ones other than that looks super mint.

Hi makaveli96!

I will buy new headlights for my escort in august and try get some new genuine ford ambers for front and side.. or option 2 : New clear indicators & new headlights. I have 90 spec rear spoiler in garage waiting for paintwork. I have been thinking to get whole car resprayed next spring so may be spoiler goes same time. Car goes in dry garage in september and doors will be open next time in spring 2010
