This is my project, a 1987 Ford Tempo 2dr. This car is going through a long transformation. If you have suggestions post them on my guestbook.
Here are some pics of my car on the turbines.

After

Here are some things that I've had done on this car:
*tinted 15%
*shaved header pannel, trunk, and wheel emblems
*Escot GT bumper cover, 1992 tempo rear bumper cover
*Painted Mineral Grey
*15X7 Rims mustang GT Turbines.
In the near future have the side skirts completed and installed.
This is what it looked like at the beginning.

and the back

but it not too bad. I'm in the process of modding both the body and the engine.
I blew my sub, so I have to upgrade my sound system soon, pics in the near future.

I have some people say that is a mustang front end on my car, well it isn't. Its an Escort GT bumper cover and a tempo header panel. In fact the pic below shows an Escort GT (left) My car (center) and a Mustang GT (right)

Hey sweet car but I wanted to let you know... that grille is definitely not off an 86 Escort. Looks like an 89-90 GT to me.

Whoops, I totaly missed the body mods page where you talk about the turbines lol, sorry, but thanks for replying. I'll try and get my hands on a pair, I'll paint them a gunmetal color. Oh and did you just use rim spray paint? Or was it done in a booth with a gun?
