Default 'New' RS 2000. Info needed.

I have just acquired this:



It seems sound enough but I need some cosmetic parts and some help.

I have a bonnet and passenger door to fit but need the front skirt jack point covers and would love one of those wrap round splitters.

Also wondering if 17" Compomotive MO 6 spokes fit straight on.

Geometry setting for this mk6 would also be appreciated.

TIA.

I used to own one just like that and thought it was a superb car, I also think the seats in them are very comfy. Wish I had kept it tbh. But I didnt have the room to store it.

Looks like a tidy mk6 you've got there. Plans sounds safe too!

May I recommend colour coding the ghia grille , makes the world of difference

White rs2ks always look good, personally I would refit the wing rs badges correctly as they look silly mounted like that and ditch the ghia grill and fit it with the better RS accessory one which is still available from ford, wheel change to the ones you mentioned are way better than mondeo/gti ones fitted now
