Can anyone suggest best way to fit this kit to a H Reg mk4 escort cabriolet. Rear arches just screw through in wheel arch, fine.My car has rubber side sill trim fitted which sits onto a metal plate fitted to car, i'm assuming that this plate is the same size & type as one fitted on S2 RS Turbo.
Front arches more of a pain, am I better bonding them on as opposed to drilling necessary holes in front wheel arches on car, if so what is best product to bond with.
Probably a dumb ass question to people in the know but rather ask the experts before hacking up the car!!
Thanks for any help

IMO it will be easier for you to just bond the arches onto the car (although mine has been properly rivveted on
) you can do this with stik-o-flex or similar. as regards to the side skirt you can just use selftapping screws to hold the botoom of the skirt in place

Don't know if it helps but on my RST the side skirts are held on by a plastic strip which is riveted to the sill, there are no metal plates holding the kit on!
The skirts fits down onto this plastic strip and then screw in underneath.
