Looks familiar, I'll be interested to see how your Zetec performance compares to my and AK-focus' Duratecs. These cars just seem to be geared horribly low, limiting MPG potential in opinion. The gap under the front of the hood is HUGE on the mk1.5, I put foam tape down and it didn't seal out anything, need to get bigger stuff eventually. I hope your mk1 has a better gap there that will seal easier. Your front bumper cover is more "lip friendly" than mine with a more straight, square design compared to my "wrap under" look of the mk1.5 bumper.
