Im still not sure where these go... Not that it matter as I dont have an escos

So these go on or around the front wing cutout? I thought these were holes to aid under bonnet temps and were not filled? pics pics

John it is in here on the back of the front wing, not where the vents are, you can see it here through the open door here



This was a long time ago, before I cleaned and polished my door shuts before some one pipes up

Hello Mate

I work in the motor industry, specifically with production models and specification is always changing. You've stated that yours is an N Plate and so late in production, you will find that spec often changes on the last of the line as parts etc become unavailable.
You have to remember that from a production point of view they order thousands of parts at a time to reduce cost, if they run out of a small item such as these pieces of vinyl towards the end of production then they may substitute for a similar part or simply delete it. This may have happened to yours.
Another possibilty is that these vehicles were made in relatively small numbers and not on a full production line, for this reason there will be many more abnormalities, misbuilds, parts deleted etc.
Another possibilty is that your vehicle was damaged at production, port, transport or even the dealer and was then poorly repaired. The end customer is never informed of this. You would not believe how common this actually is.
Either way, judging by most people, the Escort Cosworth was originally spec'd with these pieces of vinyl, and so i'm fitting them to mine.
Give the chap a break, he has already stated he isn't making any money, and even if he is as long as we are willing to pay, whats the problem

Cheers

Paul
