domw99 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Just got a new fiesta ZS ecoboost. Want some ideas on mods? Getting alloys painted gun metal grey and calipers painted. Wanted to see how easy and cheap other things were to do, possibly change headlights to a whiter light, tint rear lights and debadge? All comments and ideas will be much appreciated.

Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I have painted my alloys and callipers and put mudflaps on next I'm lowering puting some air vents in the bonnet then not sure what else to do myself was thinking of some pin striping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 They cost 30 off eBay but I had to make some brackets up to fit into the wheel arch I have also debadge put some 3d domed gel license plates wind deflectors and a s badge in the front grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domw99 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 How easy to install? How much did you pay to paint the alloys, if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domw99 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Have you got a picture of your calipers? Looking to do it myself with a kit for just £20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I did my callipers as soon as I gt the car so only had to buy a tin for a tenner from Halfords alloys should have been around the 400 mark as it's a one off paint but I sprayed them myself cuz I'm a powder coater/ wet sprayer by trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domw99 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Looks top. Going to give them a deep clean and paint with a kit from Halfords, was quoted £60 per caliper. Need to get it wrapped also as it's bright green (got it cheap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Oh yeah and mudflaps were a pain in the !Removed! for me lol but make the car look wider and lower where about r u from mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 And cheers I gt a lot more to do to it myself just waitin on an induction kit atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domw99 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 Mudflaps hard to put on? They do look good. What would the induction kit do? Not much idea as first car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Nt hard more fidely trying to get them cut to size make sure there nt too low or come out too wide but the hardestt bit was making sure they were level much easier with 2 people though and the induction kit just sounds good really in it the idea is tht it puts colder air into the engine which makes it faster but I plan on changing all the engine pipes for silicone ones and tidying the engine up a bit new inter cooler miltek exhaust and remap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domw99 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 I like he sound of a remap but don't want to loose the good fuel economy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester1102 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 U won't unless u floor it u will get more torque low end of revs so u don't have to keep dropping it down a gear and it is supposed to give u better fuel economy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
