Absolutly beautiful !!!

What do you think about Airtec's IC and rad ?
Was it easy to fit ? Did you keep the OEM fans ? I'm interested into buying a combo...

That's porn! Bet it was a good feeling to see the car in daylight again. Look how big those brakes are, filling out the whole wheel - stunning! A true minter

I think they are brillaint mate and they got a good write up in fast ford in a test they out performed some of the top makes.... As for fitting very easy ic and rad bolts together with a little bracket, which then bolts straight to the car one bolt either side, and they look amazing good finish got it from autospecialists

Thanks for your answer about Airtec. It'll be my next gift for my Escos

What is the ET of your wheels ? Did you put some spacers ?
They seem to fit perfectly in the wheels arches ! More than others with these wheels...

Yes mate full shoot, the paint had little defects here and there on the paint you couldnt really see unless you went about 2cms from the paint to look, so while its in its getting the full works doors off glass out everything so its like brand new again, same body shop that painted marks, so i no it will be a mint job
