Hi everyone,

I am 18 from south east london and own a 1994 L Reg Mark 5 Escort.

It was originally green but is now dark blue with a Cosworth body kit, big rims, K&N Induction Kit and upgraded exhaust.

I recenlty damaged the rear wheel arch passenger side, its minor giving me a few scratches but damaged my rim mostly.

The front bumper repeatidly touches the floor/bumps making me have to fix it alot.

Also, I have a bonnet scoop which has sunk! So I am looking for a replacement bonnet.

I joined today looking for help on customizing my interior, ICE and Engine.

I will upload some images soon, I know it sounds wrecked but its a beauty!

Any usefull links, infromation etc would be appreciated. I have the manual.

Thanks for reading!

Dean.

Since the picture it has had a rear twin blade spoiler and the damage to the wheel arch.

    Hi and welcome to the club. Looks a nice motor there mate.

    Only thing i would do would be to lose the bonnet scoop and get a smaller square plate for the front.

    Hi Vinny. thanks for replying to my post. :)

    Im thinking about loosing the bonnet scoop, but I need the cold air as my engine gets really hot and the fan stays on for a good 5 minutes after a 10 minute driver.

    I might just get a brakers bonnet and give it to small scoops on either side, have not decided yet.

    As for the plate, thats next on my to do list! Thanks :)

    Also, for ICE im looking at buying 3 sets of these bad boys:

    (Hope I can post external URLS? Sorry if not!)

    I want the power and the bass, I have only got a Sony Xplod 1200 Watt Subwoofer ATM.

    Also, I want to replace my middle silencer with a cherry bomb but in stainless steel:
