Looks good. Are you going to keep the paint sceme just on the hood or to other parts of the car as well?

Are you the owner who has done all the work to the car recently i.e mag feature etc etc??

If so, top work to you, impressed

I did like the old 7 spoke polished wheels though, black looks sleek and street wise

Kinda like my car, can't make my mind up so just go with whatever I may fancy at the time LOL

Hopefully get me car back this weekend so will take pics of my AP front brakes, rear discs and new suspension setup

I do like to see someone have a car for a long time and actually do something creative to it

Mind you Gadget, you have yours for 1 yr and get bore so sell it LOL

I know, i was talking to a bloke today about selling the escort maybe But i think it's only cos i'm working 7 days a week at the mo so anytime i have spare, i wanna play with my son and see the missus!
The escort has been driven 5 times since i've had it but it's going with me to work tomorow for drive shaft boots, poly bushes and exhaust mod!!

Maybe one day, Dave will actually get round to getting the car mapped instead of spending the monney on powder coating parts of the car that only MOT testers see
