welcom to the site ben, hope you have a bottomless wallet, as youll soon be wishing you did
 :P although by the looks of things, unless you bought the car that way, you have already done some work to it. looks good. will you be replacing the spoiler, or filling in the holes left behind? also, tell us more about the car including all mods that have been performed!!

Looks good but get rid of those amber side indicators and get some nice clear ones.

Nice Ride! I agree with Red, grab some clear side indicators, cheap mod, looks great. Also, I reckon it'd be worth getting a Ford badge off a Ghia front grille (they are larger) to stick in the centre of your mesh. That would look tough. I like the mags too! Cheers, GK

Welcome Ben,
Just remember one thing. It is YOUR car, YOUR money will be spent on it and it will reflect YOUR personality. Have fun with your new baby/toy. |

Looks awesome. I recomend colour coded moulds, and the clear indicators, will look a treat.
What parts have you got together for the turbo? Would you be able to PM me a list, as Im halfway down that route now (got most parts, just need a couple more). Ta mate, Josh

Hi Ben,
Welcome to the forums. I like the look of your car. I had a little go at photoshopping it a little for you (see attached). Come and make a profile at aufalcon.com. Look forward to seeing it in the future! Regards, Andrew.

With the turbo, what kind of power do you expect and does the engine need tougher bits inside to cope with it? Do you need it certificated by the EPA in SA?
