Default James's Fiesta

Hi Guys,

Have been a member on here for just under a year now and would like to say this site has been very helpful with the information about the fiesta and the support from fellow fiesta owners its much appreciated guys keep up the good work

Anyways here is a few pictures of my fiesta it is only 9 months old purchased it brand new for $14,000 so far i have lowered it 2 inches all round on pedders sports Ryder suspension and added 17 inch Audi A8 replicas to it !!! yes you are seeing correctly i added Red walls to it just to give it that touch next week end i have booked in too get a custom made air induction pipe fitted and sourcing coilovers for it as i want it lower but other then that i don't think i will do too much more to it as i drive it everyday to work and drive long distances so it's more of a practical car that looks good as well

Thanks guys please feel free to comment negative or positive all good each to there own im happy with how the car looks like i said more of a practical car

Regards,
James

PS ...... Any fiesta cruises happening anytime soon? i no xr4 are having one on the 18th but anything for the LX and Zetecs ?? if not im thinking a cruise happening soon

Awesome looking ride you have there.. The Audi A8 replicacs are an interesting decision. I love those rims.

Thanks for the comments guys

mcdougall - lowering cost me $300 that's including the springs
and i got the rims for $850 brand new including tyres they had a special going so i snapped them up

MISTA FIESTA - Yeah when i was looking for rims i tested out heaps to see what would look good it was either the A8s or those tenacious rims 10 spoke ones that are pretty common now on Lexus's and BMW's but i went with the A8s very happy how they look on the car !!!!

robjh80 - Yes i got a very good bargain i went at the end of the month when the reps need to meet budget i actually walked away twice cause i wasn't happy with the price and every time the rep came chasing me always good to do when buying a new car i also got a navman chucked in for free

I got king springs fitted to my fiesta for $450. Thats parts and labour. They lowered the car by about 35mm. Some people dont like king springs, but i've got to say that i'm extremely happy with them.
