Default Escort Mk1 questions - GS, RS and Mexico flares

Hi everyone, I'm researching some info on Escorts Mk1's at the moment and can't verify a few points. I was wondering if anyone can help confirm/answer these points.

1. Many of the Escort Mexico Mk1's have a particular consistent pumped up wheel flare style, while some don't. Was this a factory option or an aftermarket thing?

2. While smaller wheel flaring was standard on the Escort Mk1, was there a model that had slightly larger wheel flares (apart from the Mexicos mentioned above), or are my eyes deceiving me?

3. Did the RS1600 and RS2000 have the same side/hood decals? Could they be deleted?

4. Was the GS Rally Pack a popular option on Aussie Escort Mk1's and was it just the Aussie Escorts that had blacked out side window frames?

Thanks in advance!
