Im also 18 and have a white 1.1 fiesta. It does 0-60 in the time it takes to have a shuffle.
I have currenty added a Nova Big Bore 4 to my car and have £300 of ICE installed.
But Iam wanting some cheap (as im still at college) ideas to modify the exteroir of my car. Iam currently saving for a mondeo spoiler but would like something to do in the meantime. Any ideas? :???:

Do you know if it is possible to take that pooty black trim off the sides of the car? is the glue easy to remove and is it painted underneath?

oli - make sure theres an airtight seal between the filter and throttle body - otherwise youll havea knackered engine and cacked up carb/cfi unit in no time!
