i have a 1.1 at the mo, im kind of taking my time to mod it because i dont really want to be spending too much money on something and then realise i dont really like it lol. at the moment i hav a 3" scorpion back box and midsection and also some Si Front and Rear bumpers, Arches and top spoiler to fit in the next few weeks or so. (i should be getting some 15" alloys asap) can any of you recomend some subtle mods i can to to make the car look better or sound nicer? i know its a 1.1 and theres not much you can do to make a improvement to performace but i have to stick with this at the moment because of some damn chive in a nova wrote my last car off
Cheers

[Superal]

heres what i did with mine:

[hudz_si]

aah tht looks ace! same colour as mine too so helps to see what mine will look like. i was thinking about buying some of them clear rear clusters too, i didnt want lexus ones, they seem a bit same old same old. is it a 1.1? have you done anything to try and improve performance?
Cheers

[aboutblankrule]

maybe a K&N in the engine... did wonder's for me. proper roar

yer... lexus are kinda " charv " but at the time thats what i was going for... untill this forum saved me from the chaving virus!

im so bord... my cars not compleatly finished tho. still doin bits and bobs. like getting rid of that damn black stripe down the side's!





that back pic is crappy... remind me to get a better one

ooo... and there's no point doing performance stuff to a 1.1 .... waste of money unless its an engine change ... but lowering 40mm improves grip and handeling i suppose...

[hudz_si]

lol yeah i'm just getting rid of the black stripes down the side...its a nightmare! most of its off. i drilled my air box because people were saying that it would be alot cheaper and wouldnt gain anything else from a K&N, simply because its a 1.1. it sounds v.v.nice now

[aboutblankrule]

good good. as long as your happy with it!

need to get sum pic's up when u put the bumpers on. should look good

[hudz_si]

[cheby]

Hey,

My Fiesta started off like this, completely standard. Moving on to all the little things like side repeaters, rear lights and things small like that.









I then started exploring things a little bit further and invested in some suspension, wheels, and then new bumpers. So it turned out like this.





Finally the most recent thing I have changed is the bonnet, due to a nice taxi driver driving into the front of the car in the early hours of the morning and driving off.



Enjoy ...

[musicdrummer42]

a few picks of my 1.1, after about a year of owning.

[hudz_si]

hey i really like the Engine bay. I'm really wanting to clean mine up but im not too sure where to start what type of K&N is on their? how much would one of them roughly cost?
cheers

[cheby]

The K&N is off a Orion, I have one for sale if you are interested?

Cheby

[hudz_si]

lol, i would buy it but i havnt really got the money at the mo. ill hav2 stick [ERRR] the drilled box that i have at the moment. cheers anyway.

[Andy Shackleton]

heres my little 1.1 started basic and now a year and a half later looks like this


15in alloys, lowered 60mm on springs and shocks, si seats, si door cards, si F/R bumpers, smoke lights.

you just stick with FT.com and your fiesta will be mint in no time

[hudz_si]

im looking into getting a mk5 interior, but keeping the mk3 dash...cant really b arsed with all the messin about with the dash lol.

[AGAR]

Ive got the exact same scorpion back box by the looks of things - has yours got a flange connector at one end to bold onto the centre section?

Do you know how much it'll take to get a part fabbed up to connect it?

musicdrummer 42 - How'd you get the back so spanking clean!!!??? Ive tired degreaser, tar remover, bodywork shampoo and finally polish and it's no where near as clean!

[hudz_si]

wel mines a 3.5" scorpion with a 3.5" centre section aswel, so i dont know if its got a flange connector i have no idea how much it will cost me to get it fitted, because alot of the places round by me either want to fit a brand new exhaust that i get from them, or fit one that they make up themselves im sure ill find somewhere soon lol

scott

what color is your car looks very similar to mine!

i also have a 1.1 ive put a k&n on it.. roars like a beast!
ive also got front and back xr2i bumpers on it and the skirts and arches are yet to go on.

[Max M4X WW]

How did i miss this thread?!















































Lots of pics!

[FezzR]

2i arches and skirts go really well with si bumpers,

colour code mirrors (not base plates tho)
colour code door handles
m4/5 rear wiper
delock passanger side / boot
remove/colour code door rub stip

[XRMike]

looks like you have a nice clean straight car to start with. even changing little things like lights etc can make a difference, and keeping your car clean like max's will make a big difference to the apperence, even with just a few simple mods.but lowering with a nice set of alloy wheels will be a nice first mod. keep us updated with picces

[AGAR]

Max - what make of bulbs are in your headlights?

[FezzR]

Max - what make of bulbs are in your headlights?

look like philips blue vision or similar

[Max M4X WW]

They are just my sidelights, White LED bulbs.

[AGAR]

They are just my sidelights, White LED bulbs.

They really do brighten things up alot from the usual Fiesta yellowy light look

[hudz_si]

i shoud be keeping u all updated with pics soon...waiting for the car to have its MOT in a few weeks hopefully it will pass lol! do any of u guys know how far i will be able to lower the car on 15's without it rubbing on the arches, because i dont really want to be making mods to the arches.
