Well here goes hope you all enjoy

I got my first fiesta its a 1.1 3dr .




My first mod was the 6x9 in the parcel shelf along with the wheel trims if they are counted as a mod
Next I got hold of a rear spoiler and fitted it.


Next I got hold of some ford rs spoilers

I Then primed and painted the spoilers in fords radiant red spray



Slotted them onto car



Decided to paint all bumpers red and leave the black strip. So wiped the bumpers off


All bumpers painted slapped em back on


More pictures of car, also you might see a custom grill



Latest addition, some new wheels for her to role on, bought of a fellow ft user.


Just a few more pics taken tonight

Looking good mate, Whats next. Lowering?

[- Danny Boy -]

That looks smart mate!!

[singlecharge]

Thanks guys, Next plans are to colour code mirrors, door handles etc. I was thinking of lowering but I struggle to get out of my drive as it is

[M1K3Y_B]

Looks a bit odd at that height, but once its lowered it will look a lot better

Thats no excuse. You need to re-pave your driveway and lower the car It looks good, but will look 100x better when lowered.

[singlecharge]

Lol I would redo my drive if i could
Can i just lower the back, or will it put it off balance or effect the car in another way. Also are the springs wider? Just at moment it is very close to spring and shocker.
Also thanks for the comments

[FiestaBen]

Looks really nice,

Please say you're going to colour code the mirrors but leave the base plates black? looks a lot nice imo

Also thinking about getting the side skirts and arches, any thoughts?

You could just lower the back but to be honest it would look silly. Mines very low down and I don't have any problems with anyones drives, or speed humps.

Aftermarket springs are the same width, otherwise they wouldn't fit in the shock absorber.
They're not that expensive as well to be fair!

Skirts and arches? A big thumbs up from me, however lowering first

You hvnt seen my drive

[tompeteRS]

Looking good - I've got the skirts that you need to go with the kit - brand new with fitting kit PM if your interested.

Lower it, fit a MK5 red and black Zetec S interior, and some Ford RS Accessory wheels and I reckon it will look even smarter. MK5 aerial, wiper arm and colour coded mirrors would be a great addition for little outlay.

[singlecharge]

Thank-you my next plan was to do the interior, so your ideas are welcomed.

[Dave G fsi]

Get it lowered mate! When I lowered my fez I couldn't get it off the drive because its got quite a big slope on it so I hacked some concrete away to make a channel for the exhaust, jobs a good'un!!

[singlecharge]

Yer that my problem it the slope, Sommat stupid like 89 degrees Like your car btw

[Dave G fsi]

Sloping drives FTL!!

Like your car btw

Cheers mate!

another RS accessory styled fiesta , woop

[fiend]

Looks awesome with the bumpers painted and the black strip.

I wouldn't put XR/RS arches on it as they will stick out and not meet up with the bumpers.

But I would defiantly put the RS Accessory side skirts on, also the upper and lower rear spoiler.

Thankyou very much i wasnt to clear if the arches would meet up. I will deffo do the skirts. Not to sure on the lower spoiler not a massive fan.

[xr2irhys]

if you do want the spoiler i happen to have one

[singlecharge]

Thanks but i dont really think it would suit my car. Why do you have 2?

[white diamond]

car looks proper tidy mate will be good when its colour coded!

keep us updated

[singlecharge]

For those who noticed the custom grill here is a close up.


Today will be checking the wheels as they seem to rub on full lock.

[Dave G fsi]

Nice neat job there mate

[singlecharge]

Thanks, Managed to sort the scrubbing out was a matter of fastening the plastic in the wheel arch back.
Thinking of colour coding everything inside e.g vent surrounds and centre console, any thoughts or pictures?

From what i have heard, the paint starts flaking off very quickly and looks really awful

[singlecharge]

Do you mean it looks awful because it flakes off or it looks awfull even when done propely

Both

I don't agree with colour coding interior parts - always looks tacky and chavvy I'm afraid.

[singlecharge]

Ok cheers for the advice, I just wasnt sure and didnt want to trash a perfectly good dash. Next thing is skirts for the car
