It need new arch n sill on drivers side so will get them done.
I'm in stages of fitting cosworth management to the engine n try to get my other halfs dad to leather my seats n door cards. I'm after set of front brakes too 300mm 4 or 6 pots.

Has that been cut and shut between an early Rosso red ESRT and a late Radiant Red ERST?
