  • 2wd Heatshield not ideal, but it will do...

    Well, i recieved my 2WD heatshield today and it was damaged in transit which absolutley pissed me off



    But after some slight mods and a different bracket made, i made it fit

    I know its not an Escy Heatshield ( WHICH I WILL GET ONE DAY ) but it looks loads better than the Nimbus stuff i fitted last week.........







    Think she deserves a good fettle now and a run out

    That looks at home there. Will a normal Escort one fit properly without cutting it to clear the strut brace?

                Gutted, now i see why you were reluctant.

                In fairness, that one that is fitted now looks the business so you may not have to butcher an escort one.
