My 1990 FRST - *UPDATED* 15/10 New Pics & Stereo
Hi all, i'm sure this is a familiar car to many people, but here is my new Fiesta RS Turbo, recently purchased from Aaron (fiend)
Haven't had a chance to get any really good photos yet, but did get this one................
If any of the previous owners are on here, i'd love to hear from them!

Re: My new 1990 FRST - *UPDATED* 17/07
looks real nice dude
saw this in the metal when i did my 1st FT.com show/tracksession when James had it, back then it was sporting a stripped interia with white cage and some OZ or Comp TH white rims, it is REAL clean inside and out James even had it out on track in the wet, did very well until a boost hose blew off. Me and RS1800dom had some tools so help re-fit it with him
one of my Fav Fiesta RS Turbo's, i'll go find the pics

Cool, can't imagine how the car would have looked stripped and caged now that its back to looking original inside......... the total opposite!
Cheers again for the link to the photos

Re: My new 1990 FRST - *UPDATED* 17/07
Should have some new pics soon i hope as i've i've ordered a brand new pair of Fiesta Mk3.5 wing mirrors from Ford (as per what is on the car already) but these are getting colour coded to match the car as i type this........ i'm hoping when i get them back they'll look really smart, and i'll keep the ones that are on the car as a spare although the driver's side one is slightly broken lol
Still available from Ford anyway, about £140 for the pair

Beautiful car. Just the way I like them - standard(ish) on the outside but immaculate and more powerful than Ford intended underneath!

After buying the wing mirrors from Ford, i never got a chance to get a pic of them as i took them straight be sprayed (... but you can imagine what they looked like LOL!). Anyway, went and picked them up tonight and here's the result.............
VERY VERY pleased with the finish, they look awesome and was only charged £30.00, what a bargain............ just hoping the colour match is ok but won't know until i get them alongside the car at the weekend

Got the mirrors on today and i'm very very pleased with the result, any worries about the colour match were quickly banished when i held one up against the car!
Big thumbsup for my friend Darren for fitting them!
Door cards off to get access to the screws to take the old mirrors off;
Spot the difference!
Fitted and finished;
...... and another couple of small changes;
fiestaturbo.com stickers;
Re-production dealer sticker i've had made for the original supplying dealer of the car;
