Default Hi - Few Questions....

Hi guys,

I should be picking this up on Saturday ... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/324511.htm

So bloody excited! Loved RS's since is was a kid!

Now a few questions....

How easy is it to fit S1 arches and skirts? I've seen a mercury grey escort with escos wheels and S1 kit which looks sexual and think it'd look even better in red.

I've been told the escos wheels cause alot of issues on S2's due to the width an offset. What can be done to remedy this as i love the look and also plan the above!

Does anyone know the car? The seller has told me there is a plaque under the bonnet with RSOC on it and the Welsh club. Anyone recognise the reg? The wheels have only been on for a month or so.

Am i right in saying the bumpers have been smoothed?

It looks the the 'mouth' in the front bumper is taller than other 90 spec front bumpers, is this true or am i imagining things?

Sorry for all the questions but i will appreciate any help given!!!!

Bumpers are smoothed

The 'mouth' has been made bigger

Not hard to fit S1 arches and skirts if you can do bodywork jus a case of cutting it where the arch meets the S2 bumpers, painting and fitting.
