TDCiST Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Ah... Thats a point!! I never mentioned!! I found out yesterday, when i went to clean the bit where the old grille was, that someone has clearly reversed into me in the past.. as the old grille has scratched the paint!!! Ive had to touch up pen quite a fair bit!! I'll have to get the polish out and cut it back now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDCiST Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Finally, the news youve all been waiting for!! The Lip is Wrapped!! Did it quickly so wrapped it on the car, I'm going to get new one and wrap it off the car top get a better result, but this will do for now! Sorry for the poor quality pictures!

Gavc Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Looks sweet mate!! ;) How easy was it to do on the car? Got some carbon wrap today so may try that myself!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDCiST Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Fairly easy, I cut a strip that was about 6 inches wide, then heated it gently and applied it. I made sure it was firmly stuck then cut the excess with a scalpel. It's a bit of a rush/bodge job but I have plans to either buy a new lip and wrap it or carbon dip it... But this will do for now! As long as your careful you'll be ok, I'm waiting to see how long before it peels as its not wrapped round on the top in some places as I couldn't get the credit card down the gap!! I will take a good pic tomorrow I promise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDCiST Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 A slightly better pic for everyone! (Only slightly though) Am going to look at doing the rear one too i think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyl Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Anyone tried fitting a Mondeo MK4 steering into ford focus like this ? Instructions translated using google is a pretty unclear. Just wonder anyone here has done it and could write a guide in english :) Would be awesome to have cruise control and all the fancy buttons for our tdci. http://ffclub.ru/topic/29155/jump_320/#comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDCiST Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 Today was a boring day..... So I got the carbon vinyl out again!!! Fairly pleased with the results, next step will be the radio surround and associated centre console plastic! I may even get the red "S" logo cut in vinyl for the steering wheel...
