I really like that. The GF loves Fiestas and she's very impressed by that one!

I really, really like those Ford Racing Dials. Now youve got me wondering where i can put some in the Focus........

18" will go striaght on with no work as long as there 7" wide alloys and you will only be able to lower about 30mm.

19" No No No lots of work required.

Also, in comparison to what you paid FOR the car... how much have you spent on it? like 50% of what you paid for it?

Hey James,

As previously discussed your car is a BEAST, everthing on it mod wise is awesome. I love the ford racing guages & body kit.

Great work on it. Is there anything else u plan on doing to it??

Hi Damian,

Well its just bits and bobs now.

Have ordered the ST bump stripes from ford so will have them soon and painted up then on the car.

Theres also some ST bits i want for the inside like the ST door handles there Silver in the ST.

Im sorting out me Front componets too like me music proper loud and iv just blown one of the componets so need to upgrade so im going for some BOSTIN componets need to find £280 for them tho.

And the last thing is under the bonnet wanted a bit of bling and need to make a proper induction pipe for me K&N.

and then its on with the shows but there coming quick so need to get it all sorted now will be fun.

Cheers All :1syellow1

The car cost me £7800 new that was with disscount because me uncle worked for ford which was nice.

SWA body kit painted fitted £1500.00

OZ Alloys £750

ICE about £700

and then all the bits and bobs like colour coding

carnt really put an end figure on it but worth it to me. :

Oh ok... just asking because over hear we get the 1.6L.... which i think is in the Ghia over there. Also, we get the silver door handles already, and the ST aint even out here yet.

So no engine mods then? Also, those rims i think are the hottest on a fiesta... and that wing just sets off the car! really nice

Cheers Mate,

The Spoiler is By SWA very nice one of my fav bits of the car.

And im Running a K&N cone filter and a powerflow cat back exhaust system. :

Two of me mates have got clio 172 ones a standard 172 aqnd the other is a 172 cup. The 172 cup is f**cking rapid theres a company other here in england thats just started the full turbo conversions for them.

But i think the 172 cup is quick enought TBO i take my mates out for a drive sometimes and its mint hes got a Twister air filter and a scorpion exhaust and its the same as 182s if not faster.

Hey James,
I'm a really new owner, is the Mk6 the 1.4 worked or a completely different motor e I only know a little bit about my own stock standard 2wks old. But I think I've got standard 15" rims with 7.5" (continentals) I didn't ask for them I think I somehow got a cancelled order. It's late here 1pm Tuesday think all the east coast ozzies have gone to bed.
My favorite pic of your Fiesta is the top one, all that matching detail. Very schmick but still under stated, I really like that. :hihi:
Cheers mate, Kim.

I just said the 182 cause over here it is the latest model... and plus i want those twin exhaust pipes of the new one! DAMN YOU! i would die if i could drive one! My cuz has a Mini Cooper S Cabrio with the JCW kit and powerchip on order.... im allowed to drive that when it arrives... cant wait!!!!!!!

But yea, i really want the Clio 182 or 172 with mods... they just look so agro, yet they have a sort of sleeper attitude to people that dont know what they are capable of.

I LOVE your rear spoiler, its just hot... its even bigger then the ST one, which is awesome as well... does SWA stand for anything in particular?
