Hey,
I'm learning to drive atm, i bought my bro's car off him which is the basic silver Fiesta Mk4 (with alloy wheels for some reason) and i was wondering if there was anything subtle i could change first on the car, not too expensive too, i was thinking something like brake calipers painted or something? any other ideas welcome.
Cheeeeers guys

Welcome to the forums

Plenty of mods to do
Callipers sound a good place to start, what colour? Silver, Red?

Just dont make any body work changes i.e bumpers etc otherwise insurance will be a nightmare for you

Yeah cheers, I was thinking either red or yellow? and yeah as for the bigger stuff I'm waiting for a couple/few years for my insurance to drop, hopefully no points or crashes would help lol

I would say go for red, the yellow will be a nightmare to clean and dont forget use heat resistent paint otherwise boom!!!

Tis ok and I would say good old Halfrauds is the best choice, if not a trust worthy car place where you know the paint it the real deal
