Good Evening All

I wanted to let you know that Performance Ford Magazine will be popping down within the next few weeks to do a photoshoot of my mk7 Fez, fingers crossed I should get a feature within the next few issues.

Good Afternoon Gents

Max SK - Sadly I didn't do the rear disc conversion, Hi Spec did the conversion, your best bet will be to speak to Geoff at Hi Spec to get info on what and how the calipers were fitted.

Nico - I dont know how to add pics to this thread, BUT if you go to my profile and look at my picture gallery the pics of my car are available to view there.

Thank you All

kabz, what alloys are they on your car?

I love that new screen

Thanks

[kabz77]

Cortexx - they're Dezent Motion alloys 17"

The head unit is the new Alpine Sat Nav double din, I've forgotten the model number sorry.

Thanks Kabs, and Ben! They look wicked

A sweet sweet car! the mods are stylish and dont look out of place! - out of curiousity, how much has it cost you to tart her up?

[Strutter]

Honestly I cant help but think that modded dash looks pretty awful.

Really sorry but thats just how it looks.

+1 - hate the fascia for the stereo but the rest is looking good :)

[kabz77]

Strutter - everyones entitled to their own opinion, please dont apologise but sadly there isn't anything else available in terms of an aftermarket facia that could make the dash look more pleasant. I do agree the facia makes the dash look very bland but hey I've now got a head unit that has built in SatNav, bluetooth, Ipod, dvd etc all built into one AND I can still use my steering wheel screen, so there! :P

Jeebowhite - I can't disclose how much I've spent in total coz I've got my wife sitting next to me while I'm typing and she will go flipmode if she finds out. All I will say is I've been fortunate enough to be able to save hard (having two jobs made it easier).

Thank you

Love the leather seats! Did you do the re-trim yourself?
