I tried searching for some for my 1996 Bug eye and cant find anything. Infact i cant find anything expect for a mesh grill on ebay. Does anyone know if you can actually buy moddifaction parts for the bug eye or anywhere you can get them from?
Thanks James

www.buypartsby.co.uk
they list a 30mm lowering spring kit for a 95-98 Scorpio for a very resonable £ 66.57 + VAT
Good people to deal with too.
What other parts are you looking to modify ? with a little ingenuity, you can adapt various parts to fit as the scorp shared components with various other ford models - for instance, brake upgrade is possible using the Focus ST170 300mm disks and callipers, you can polybush your suspension using a mix of granada Mk3 and mondeo bushing.... the list goes on

Either should be ok, but i'd probably go for the v6 springs due to the weight of the TD lump - most diesels weigh a ton !
