RGA....epic period accessories!
Richard Grant Accessories were the early version of Ripspeed (sold through Halfords and other car outlets) and made all kinds of spoilers for all the cars of the period. Front spoilers (the term 'splitters' didn't exist back then), rear spoilers/roof spoilers, side skirts, vents etc...
Now called Richard Grnt Mouldings, they still make lots of stuff but it's the 80's/early 90's stuff that really looks the part (in a kind of tacky but cool way)
Can't wait to see this fitted. ;D

Excellent little first car! I cant believe its been 5 years since I was oggling over mk1 fiestas on here aged 14. I actually went to look at one almost identical to yours, I had it all planned out with round headlights, slight lowering job and my KN Jupiters. Unfortunately it turned out to have a little bit too much rust for me to deal with I still fancy one but the insurance is surprisingly high for a little car! Can't wait to see that spoiler on it

Unfortunately insurance gets more expensive when you come off a provisional I was paying £700 for the Polo TPFT all mods declared on a Prov and it went up to £1500 when I passed. Its not prohibitively expensive, but I'm looking at £150 more on the insurance than the equivalent Mk1 Polo.

wots wrong with the bonnet? It's open Hinges forward. I don't like it would look good with bumpers Don't forget the MO. Positivity please That's going to look awesome when it's fitted. Have you got wheels in mind, or just going with changing dependent on mood (it's what I'd do if I had a suitable stash ;D ).
