Default Ford Sierra LX Transformation to XR!!!

Hello!! This are the pictures of the transformation that I made to my Ford Sierra 1993 Argentinian version LX. 2.3 Lima engine to make it like I think it could be a XR version of it.

When I bougt it in 2004





And This is the car now!!

Thanks!!!
No, we only have the Sierra XR4 with the 2.3L but without the Turbo.
It have 120cv . My engine was modified with the performance original parts and somo more work. I think it may have some few extra horses.

The RS version never get here, thats very sad for me.
Here we have only MK1 Sierras versions and all of them have the nasty front bumper of the American Merkur.
I want to buy one front bumper of the Sierra RS (MK1) but I still don´t find nobody that wants to ship it to Argentina.
It´s dificult live in the 3rd world jajajajaaaa

You can see our version in www.fordsierranet.com.ar

Thanks!!!

The seats are from the Mitsubishi GT3000. There are very, very, similar seats of the Rouse version , thats why I buy them.
I try to use all the original parts of "fast original Fords" that I can get here.
To find the RS Escort MK2 steering weel I have to travel to Uruguay and find it traveling across the country to find who can seel me the part. I found it used, so it takes me almost 6 month of my free time after work to make it fit in the sierra and restore the paint and the leader.

Lucas!!
