Default Forrest or X pack???

Hi, I am new to the old school Ford But I always been a Ford man since 18, had a Fiesta MK3, Escort MK4, have a Focus mk1 tdci for daily runner and a Sierra saphire Cosworth 2wd but I want to go a bit retro with an Escort Mk2 becouse I always wanted one. Now I have to decide between the Forrest arches or the Xpack body kit but still didn't make up my mind...Plans is to fit a Zetec with 45s webers and a BDA style top cover, caged interior and the rest will come along the way.. Which way I should go then Forrest or X pack????

There is also the wider Monte Carlo arches, personally I'm not a fan of those and decided to use the narrower tarmac all round on my own.
