wouldn't the RS spoiler be a bit out of place on a Zetec? RS and XR5 have a large body kit and 19x8.5" (18x8" on the XR5) wheels to carry it off. zetec has a much smaller body kit and only 16x6.5" wheels... maybe better to go with an XR5 wing??

My 2011 Zetec has 17" x 7" rims as standard, but I agree that an RS wing on a Zetec would be a bit much, it suits the RS being a 3 door, whereas IMO most wings that size would look out of place on nearly any 5 door car.

they look ok on an XR5, especially with a few more cosmetic mods.

My 2c worth is with slightly bigger wheels (maybe 18's instead of 17's) & drop it a couple of inches & it would probably be good with the RS wing, if you want a loud wing. The XR5 wing wold definatly look good IMO.

What colour is it??

Here are a couple of pics of my zetec next to an XR5 & an RS so you can see the differences. Hope these help.

depends on what you want. if you're a member of the XR5 forums (either www.fordxr5turbo.com/forum or www.xr5ownersclub.com/forum ) there's plenty of info on the various CAI's.

if you don't want to do that, google broomfish (NZ) for a Simota or JWR (UK) for Dreamscience.

Hi ConradP and Russ. Sorry, only just got your messages. We did the chrome ourselves. You can buy it in strips from Supercheap Auto/Autobarn (can't remember which one I went to) and you stick it on. But as you saw, there's also the one that's on ebay...slightly different style though =)

Those little lights blend in really nicely. I'm not a fan of the ones you see on the Audi's or the HSV's, but these actually look like they belong. Nice.

****! Posting pics of my CL 'pov' pack after an RS....sheesh! But I still love her.


I was cruisin on the XR5 site and found some 17" Zetec rims and tyres. The fella sold them with good tyres for $300. How good is that!



Need to lower it a bit now. I have some XR5 springs, and Muzza, the fella from the XR5 site has Zetec springs, shocks and bar. I think given the XR5 stuff is designed for a heavier front end, I'll go the Zetec items when funds permit.



Am liking the silver on silver at the fron end, including the CC chromed spot light bezels.


Drives really nicely, and although sitting up a little too high, I think looks rool perty.

Not sure if it's the same thing but :

Can't really tell if it's chrome or gold, inquire and see.

Yes please, 5 pound is better than $142 euros. What a rip for a bit of plastic!
