I was going to do that to my old saloon, but the GSi spoiler won't fit as the saloon rear window comes up too high :(
Have you fettled the sideskirts a bit, as they seem to fit quite well in those last few pictures?

I think with a bit of cutting in and patience with Tiger seal, it would fit ok, but like you say there's not a lot of metal between the window seal and the start of the roof.......hmmmmmmm
The only fettling was re-shaping the rear section to sit flush against the quarter panel and they are obviously a lot different to the saloon. Just used a hot air-gun and to get the shape into the plastic and cooled immediately with cold, freezing in fact, water. Then stuck them on as per the previous pics.
Only main issue is the gap, still to solve.......
my dad had the nova dart spoiler fitted to his old 2 door -- i think it was like a rubber one the same style as a MK2 Escort RS
Is that one that goes on the boot lid?Quote:

that looks a beast! saloons are defanantley growing on me! good work
Cheers mate. I must admit I love 3-door hatches more, but my first car was a saloon and it's bringing back fond memories having one again.
i like that now, looks smart fella....
got any plans for an engine?
Very nice, keep us updated, will be a very usful topic for me :P as i might be getting a saloon
Cheers very much. On the lookout for either a 1.3sr, 1.4sr, 1.6 GTE or 1.6GSI that's either failed an MOT or is going to fail an MOT that I can get cheap and take the engine, gearbox, loom, dash, fuel tank etc from. A GSI would be ideal as I love the mk2 black dash.Quote:
