no but i can weigh you a mk4 one if you want :)

i think you'd struggle to find a fibre glass one and it would be expensive to have one made :( you could skin the mk6 bonnet to save a few KG's :idea:

i think i saved 3kg.... :? 9kg to 6kg :? just by skinning the boot of my mk2 escort :D of course my mk1 escort has a fibreglass boot :wink: :lol:
