Hi All,

Been meaning to join on here for some time now, so here I am.

I became a fiesta owner for the second time about 8-9 months ago, bought my sisters mk7 zs for a daily and it's evolved a little since then when it was completely standard.

I'm a big Ford man. I also had a mk6 fiesta with the swa kit on too many years ago. Currently own the fiesta and two sapphire Cosworths.

So Hi and heres a couple of pics.

Spec on fiesta currently is..

Lowered on ap coilovers and wheels spaced 15mm front and back.
Front arches flat rolled
ST220 front calipers with my own design adapter bracket, ST170 300mm discs and custom brake lines.
Miltek cat back.
DMB graphic badge set.
Triple R front splitter and side skirt extensions.
Mountune Spoiler extensions.

Current project.... Rear disc brake conversion (ST150) and wheel spacer all in one. Again my own design. Just building now.
Also colour coding plastics.. Front grills, rear defused, mirrors, fog light surrounds.

And more to come.

Anyone from Notts way?

Cheers James

Hi Jack,

Yes I'm spaced 15mm all round. But it required a lot of work on the arches to space and lower the car how I have. I flat rolled the arches which cracked the paint on the lip, so painting was needed. I'm also running max camber on the front with my APs.

Lol cheers Jack.

I'm very much hands on, as you will see below, all I'm missing is a lathe to make my own alloy parts.

Not sure about my wheels yet, but I have been thinking about a colour change.

This is my front brake build

And this is my other long long term project ;)
