seeing those photos really shows how much you have done to the car lee, i remember when you first posted a pic up on here back in early 05

you must of spent many hours and lots of money on it to get it looking like it does.

you happy with it?

see you have done the rear wiper conversion aswell,

think those facelift lights will look ace on your car mate too. so they are not a straight swap then? excluding addtional reverse and foglight.

yeah im happy with it so far,wish i could do a bit more and quicker though.

the rear lights are a pain,the plug is different to the old ones,they also dont have a bulb holder like the old ones each bulb is on its own.
i need some lexus light looms (well the plug) so they plug into the old loom,just need to mate the lexus loom to those lights,then run a wire across the boot for the extra reverse and fog light.should have them fitted in a week or so.
i wouldnt have gone to all that trouble but they only cost me £40 the pair whistle.gif

It's looking really good - and very ST like - I do like that colour. I remember way back looking at a fiesta (si I think) in a very sim colour.

I like it a lot Lee! Brings back the days when i turned my little 05 plate 1.4 black fiesta into an ST replica with the full bodykit and alloys etc etc.
It looks amazing what youve done to the car and ST seats would look brilliant in the car. Wot would top it off , is if you got the seats and had the ST logo stitched in a dark orange to match the paintwork of the car. That would be stunning and would finish the car off a treat!!!

Top Work Lee thumbsup.gif yep.gif

A scrappy dealing in particular manufacturers is handy. Charles Trent in Erith, Kent is supposed to be a Ford specialist and when I needed a new rear light for my car I went there and they had them "in stock" lol.gif

seeing as my project thread on ukfn has been removed ill keep this one updated regularly

just got the rest of my caps today so the engine bay is almost done..




[attachment=6860:attachment]

what do you think? thumbsup.gif

all i need now is an omp strut brace which ill order in the next few weeks..

i was thinking of having a stainless cover made for the airbox like the ST one torquesteer sell.
autospecialists said they would have a go but it could take a while,all i need is a spare airbox to lend them... not sure if it would look ott or not though unsure.gif
