Roy, what offset do you have on these wheels? ET20 at the back and ET30 at the front?

Cheers.

did you get new indicator clips as well? Might worth a try as they are cheap.

how does the indicator sit with the fog light removed?

got a bargain for 30 euros

yeah i know, always very crowded when its nice weather. you really have to time your lap right,. early in the morning is the best time to go on.
I'm aware your car is expensive, very hard to come by in Holland!! good thing you're taking such good care of it then! nice looking escort, love those mk4's!!!

Just read through all 4 pages. Stunning job with the wheels mate.
Random question... How come your 3dr doesn't have a sunroof? I was under the impression that only the motorsport shells were made without sunroofs?

In the UK all the 3doors Cosworths had sunroofs and side repeaters. Over here in Europe (Netherlands and Germany for sure) the cars didn't had any side repeaters, they were not needed by the law back then. And the sunroofs were an option, we actually have some 3doors Cosworths over here without electric mirrors / windows that are genuine road cars.
