Title: Tuning/styling for the Frogeye ?
Post by Froscio on Nov 3rd, 2008, 6:17pm
I have not seen to much of these things for these cars. Actually the ONLY styling i have seen is this spoiler lip:

Anyone seen anything else?

One of the wildest Scorpio mods I have ever seen is Scorpioman's engine bay, ask him for a picture ;)

It looks as though the car in your picture has a mesh grille as well similar to the one Shaun has,I think it was Zunsport or the like.

I noticed the grill yes, but the front lip spoiler was the item in that link. Look under the front bumper, and you will see a deeper spoiler than standard.

Yes i have seen Richard's cool Estate. It is defintively the coolest front i have seen, and it is homemade. Well done.

But still, you can not buy this solution, altough it can be done.

All the earlier ones had at least a RS styling kit, but nothing for this one??

Thats the Scorpio story,nothing for em ! Production numbers were low,and the cars were aimed mainly at the executive or for those who had"arrived",not the types who would countenance bolt on goodies eh!

I actually like the way the car looks as it came from the factory  :o

Look at many later cars - the front end styling has definate Scorpio influence.

Scorpio was ahead of its time IMHO  ;D

Do you know if rear skirts of Granada mk3 "RS-KIT" bumber fit properly to Scorpio?

It's maybe like this:

Mk 3 granada skirts fit with a little work, no off the shelf styling or tuning parts, apart from induction filters, unless you really want to spend some cash and have throttal boddies fitted

heres mine http://img2.pict.com/90/d2/be/2383967/0/800/p1341061009.jpg

Have to agree, moreover read a review recently where the guy was saying the overall shape was as per the American style, remembering various US TV shows and suchlike from the 1990's onward, and currently even, I can now see exactly what he means. Just hadn't made the connection before.

RS Skirts from granada mk3. No big modification was needed.

bigger pic

Rear bumber is also some centimetre or couple wider (It just came that after plastic welding parts together rofl)

Next I'm going to do is get RS rear skirt and paint front lip to body color.
