Too big, wrong proportion, will look like one of those Aussie racecar caricatures. But its your car. A prospective buyer will gave to factor replacing the rear panel and a respray a minimum half car!

Ah put the Skyline lights in. Gets boring looking at MK1's with bubble arches on.

i think i will also graft in 1 scoop  similar to the xw gt scoop on one side .. 
 
i dont want this escort to be the same as all the others i see about  ..
 
just a question for anybody who has done the steel bubble arches
 
do you weld in the tubs to the bubble arches or quaterpanel  i know by doing lj torana tubs we get the tubs about 5-10mm the most from the quaters and use sikaflex to fill in the gap so as not to warp the quaters
 
also do yous get a 6-10 mm round bar and weld right around the radius inside the quater for strength
