Am not winning the stance battle with this one.

Getting there though.

 

I think so too. Just woundered what others thought.

 

Without the spots for me

 

i like the spots personally!
as for the stance, try filing down the edges of the tires so they look stretched, then you can get the wheels sitting closer to the insides of the arches
someone on a model site put the tires on a dremel attachment then spun em against a file so it was even, looked pretty good

yeh was just temporary though, only starting it now cause i bought the paint today haha
got ur pm, ta

 

Thats a really good idea mate, but I cant stand the stretched look.
Might file the inner arch though.

 

ha ha that sounds good,do u have any pics of the finished wheel mate

 

oh i went by the pics

 

[quote=roadstermatt;4897635]cant remember if i posted this previously or not so here goes anyway
as well as the xr3i hatch sunstar aare doing an xr3i cabrio 1984 surely these were just called 1.6i cabrios they didnt be come xr3is untill the mk4 came out
part numbers are
909 h4991 1984 escort xr3i cabriolet graphite grey

909 h4992 1984 escort xr3i cabriolet black



as i though but as i said i dont think in 1984 they were even xr3i cabrio's

Erm it was her who took me

 

Not yet..but the thought of having an S2 along side it,well

 

good stuff mate yeah lemme know

 

just need to sand the back down as i poured in to much resin,,,
pm me your address m8 will be in post tomorrow. .

 

theyre awsome !! pm on the way bud

 

They look awesome

 

Would you need to cut holes in the bonnet of can they just be stuck on top?

 

im not sure how im gonna do mine, would look good flush with the bonnet, but would be hard to cut out and fit,, hmmm

 

there very thin so if u sand back right down u could get away with sticking them straight on bonnet.

 

ah ! ignore the second part of my pm bud thats how ill do it

 

I am in the process of buying a new model.

Any one quess what??

 

no idea just tell us...

 

No play the game.
