They are indeed cossy rims which have been polished. They are not so much rare but a good set will set you back a few quid as they look good on a lot of fords. Personally I think they really suit the fiesta

Re: fiesta rs turbo restoration
I rang the guy up earlier and spoke to him bout the wheel he wanted a good price for a by now so jumped in my car and picked them up. Bloody long drive 2hours each way but was worth it I think.
Couple little marks here and their but with a flatten I should get them up after a mop to then I'll clear coat them.
Oh any picked this up hour ago to
Don't really want the white bad boy one I got think I'm getting old standard is looking much better.
Even might put swage lines back in it.

Re: fiesta rs turbo restoration
I had one on my escort rs and I liked it got pic here took me week to prep and spray this one.
Really really really regret selling this car!!!!
Think I only paid 40 or 50 for it looked ok at the time and wen I put it on but now I'm just thinking not to trash my car but keep it as standard as I can little mods just change the colour. Only paid 30 for the gray one. I even smoothed my boot cos I like that but more I'm looking at other turbos on here I'm wishing I didn't and keep looking for new boot haha
Make my mind up one day def have on colour tho, panther black of light candy green black roof and as much carbon I can make parts for as I can but I'm working on that now with few bits.
