Exterior:
RS2000 already has the wider headlights, so thats ok, , front bumper with headlamp washer jets, indicator and fog lights, grill, front spoiler, front splitter/hockey sticks, bonnet, front wings, sideskirts, rear wings, extended fuel filler/correct cap for the year (locking or flap?) wing mirrors (if your making a later model replica) rear bumper, lower spoiler, upper whaletail spoiler, pop out rear windows, and a set of escos wheels & badges. Thats all i can think of for the exterior, oh and you might need to fabricate an exhaust up to poke through the rear bumper.

Interior, Full escos trim, inc dash, gear/handbrake surround, s/wheel. you wll prob need to weld in a false transmission tunnel for it all to fit properly, which will need to come from a 4x4 sierra or 4x4 escort, or make your own up.


Im not all clued up on it, so i'll leave it at that, someone may correct me if im wrong in some parts.
