just a quiery lads,, ive never noticed this before, on any of my previous fiestas,, but on the black one, indicated just above both indicators on the wings, where the wing is welded to the front panal, ive found ,,,

on the drivers wing, a date, and on the passanger wing is a number,(158)

has anyone got these to, and does anyone know what this means??

Original front wings have a date stamp which corresponds with build date, kind of. in the format of 12-11-91. Also there will be a 89FB type stamp. Replacement wings will just have the Ford stamp probly.

yeah see its dated 29-04-93 but on the other wing has 158, can some one with an rs1800 check their passanger wing if their not replacement,,, atleast i know now that the front end hant been pranged in the past

Look at the seam sealer, is it identical on both wings? Any sign of overspray. Replacement wing should be pretty easy to spot tbh

oh no i know its got origional wings cos its got these prints on them, i was just wondering if the 158 was a limited number of the belt,, ie rs1800,, as im certain the cars an rs,, but has had the engine replaced for a lower powered 1.8, and the log book has details changed,, so if it WAS an rs, i want it BACK as an rs

Wings are just 'stanadrd' parts mate, no difference between the RS1800 and XR2i really
