fiesta fras, this is only a sugestion> Get the front indicators relocated into the f.bumper, cossie style, then have a morette headlight conversion, blank the wings off. Saw it done on a fezzeer a couple of years back, it did look amazing!! as I say a suggestion as everyong has thier own preferences!
5 doors that will have a lotta difference next year!!

would b a good idea but i thk morrettes suit an si or turbo more than cossie bumpered festered. I thk i might just keep it all simple down to smoothing and delocking, going for modified concours in 2002 can't risk any mods going wrong or filler cracking etc

yeah fill in the tow hook and change the rims - not too fond of those rims - i reckon your car would look sweet with some multispokes

ok my input (for wats its worth... no gags please!!!)

DON'T get quad headlights, indicaters in buper/mirrors etc... they have their places... but your cars is the "smooth clean" type and they'd bugger it up...

I personally wouldn't get a vent on it...
tho thats a bit hippercriticle as I'm going for the clean look but with an evo vent ... I had dents to cover up :razz:

I had my arial removed/smoothed, as with the rain gutters.... I reckon they'd look sweet on yous and would go a treat with the clean foggless front end and delocking.

Also something on the back bumper to bring it a bit lower and lose the bottom curvyness of the rer bumper 9my room mate calls that the fat arsed fiesta look, but I won't as I'll wee-wee of loads of SI rear bumper people!!!)

if you don't want the flush tailgate/recessed back plate in bumper... lose the no plate light, and put those bolts with the lights in them (demon tweaks) to light u the rear plate.

lol thats it realy!!! :grin:

Sweet car.. I like it. and don't think i'm trying to be kinda "do this do that" female of easy persuasiongy offy... just saying what I thinks cool!!!!

nother thing I did on mine was fill/smooth the grills on the scuttle plate where the wiper is... i'm a believer that its the little toutches that make the big differences... if there enough of 'em!! :bonkers:
