Re: Starting out mods for my feista
kit fits both mate, only difference is the front bumper, on the mk4 it will need a little triming on the bumpstrip.
if you looking at cheap mods, detango your front headlights and smoke them whilst your at it.
debadge the rear,
de stripe the side if you wish, but prepare for the parking dings to come!

Re: Starting out mods for my feista
detango front lights:
buy some silvertech bulbs from halfords, opposite pin. £10
take out front lights, 3 Screws, two at front behinde grill 1 on top on the wing.
take the metal clips off that secure the glass and plastic.
get a hairdryer and heat the edges where the glue is that glues the glass to the plastic.
then use a flat head screwdriver to prise the glass away from the plastic part of the light,
then simpile unclip the orange filter, stick new bulb in
reheat glue, you might want to get new sealer too (i didnt and mine where fine)
and refit, and admire
Rear lights:
Simple get masking tape, mask off the red reflector on it, then get some black tinting spray and spray them however dark you want.

Re: Starting out mods for my feista
firstly, only do it if you have a boot popper otherwise you carnt get into your boot
you can either take it to a garage to get it fully smoothed or you can smooth it yourself
