	Hi and welcome. 4 doors are normally left standard looking so there arent too many modded examples to be found. RS 4 spokes and a front lip spoiler are about the only mods you will normally see. Did see one once that someone had fitted bubble arches to Not good

	don't try and make it look like a 2 door, by giving it all the sporty bits like arches and so on, personally, id go rectangle front lights low low low on superlights, or even bbs splits! chin spoiler, capri rs3100 rear spoiler curb feelers,

	slater said: IMO that is the way to go with a four door. Just keep it subtle and understated then whack a turbo cossie lump in it ;D ;D ;D

	I think 4 doors are cooler than 2 doors anyway, less obvious. that green one is a good example to follow.

	Welcome, fellow 4-door mk1 owner! ;D I think the green one above is an excellent example - nice and simple, Lotus steelies, black bonnet. Great hiding place for a monster x-flow / pinto / cossie / Zetec / XE (delete as applicable). If you need any bits I'll be breaking a very rotten 4-door over the next few weeks!

	cheers all!! mucho useful... yep that goldy greeny one is the way to go... are lotus steels a straight swap? i think I'm gonna put a zetec in it!!, but keep the outside kinda simple! rich
