Good Evening All!
We collected my partners new car last weekend - I can't believe how impressed both my mrs and I have been with it! My Girlfriend loves the looks and the tech the car offers, for me it the perormance/handling (although I have to admit it does look good!!). We did a 400 mile round trip to fetch the car from Cheshire and the drive back was a pleasure.
Setting off from the dealers
I've planned a few mods and the bits are starting to arrive, so far I've ordered the following:
Mountune/K&N air filter/air box hose
H&R 50mm lowering springs
Eibach Wheel spacers
McGard Black wheel nuts & locking nuts
Phillips X-treme vision Headlights
Silvertec Indicators & side repeaters
LED side light & no. plate bulbs
Poss future mods:
Fly eyes (black)
Zetec S front bumper grill
Mountune Carbon front splitter
Mountune Spoiler extensions
Paint fog light surrounds, rear drums & front cailpers (black)
I dont really plan on going OTT but I do start getting carried away sometimes! I'm hoping the springs and spacers should give the car a better stance? All of the bulbs have arrived (as pictured) so I'll be upgrading these at the weekend along with detailing the car (pictures to follow). the suspension mods will be done the weekend after that as I need to use a workshop. Any tips or advice with anything would be appreciated, I was thinking about a re-map but can't see it being worth the expense tbh - is anyone running a map?
Bulbs ready to be fitted
Thanks for looking, I look forward to posting more in the future : )
p.s. I've put a few pics of my car in the 'other cars you own' section if anyone fancies a look!
Cheers
Aaron

Re: Black Fiesta Metal
Looking good!
Just a quick one though, I don't think those LEDs will do much for your number plates. When installed the bulbs are horizontal but the light needs to shine down. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270948334557? ... 1439.l2649
Those are what you need (and I have them)

Re: Black Fiesta Metal
Good Point!! I'm on it now, looks like the same company I bought the other from. At least I'll have some spares now for the sidelights - or I could fit them to mine.
