Fiestagirl's Mk7 Titanium

Hi Everyone!

I've had my 1.6 Mk7 Titanium (Diesel) for almost a year now and thought i'd make a little thread with what i've done so far and what i have planned!

Also i'd like your opinions as to what you think so far and any ideas on what i should do next :)

First off heres a few pics of what it was like when i bought it. (I'd added the stickers on the back of it)

One if the first things that i decided to do was to swap over the Ford badges for some that i bought from DMB graphics online for i think around £11.00 for the pair.

I also wanted to swap the original badge as mine was looking abit crappy on the chrome.

I got my badges in White and Blue :)

Before and after pics: Front badge

Rear badge
The next thing i did was to get it lowered. I'd heard the the Titanium stood around 10mm higher than other models as standard. (I'm not 100% sure on this)
I bought Eibach 40mm Lowering Springs brand new off eBay for £150.00ish.
Here are some before and after pics: (My car is disgustingly dirty in some of these pics i am sorry haha)

Now that it's bedded in it has lowered slightly more.
I'm happy with the choice i made as it looks lower without being too harsh a ride.
I then bought some side stripes again off DMB Graphics in white and added them on :)

This is how my car looks now after a good scrubbing! (It was much needed!)

The next thing that i have planned is a spoiler, i have already bought one off eBay for about £100.
I'll upload some pics of it when i've had it sprayed and fitted which should be in the next few days.
I would also eventually like to get my alloys sprayed in Frozen White.
Any comments and feedback are all welcome :)

I've seen a chrome strip that go's around the front grille looks great on dark coloured fiesta' s , my wife's going to be changing hers soon so won't get one?, Ford- Sony 6CD in dash unit also nice and a really great sound but am in 40'z and play Van Halen & Kiss far too loud

Hi!

Good you got that spoiler! A fiesta without a spoiler just isn't finished IMO!

She's defo gettin another Ford like me she's loves the toys in the top spec models , folding mirrors, heated windscreen, cruise etc..

She's looking at the new ST Fiesta and the new B-Max Titanium X Powershift, think the B-Max might win though as we've got 2 grandchildren and 5 doors would be really useful with the child seats , am hoping Ford do a 5 door Fiesta ST as in the Focus.

No 5 door in the ST I'm afraid unless you go to the States.

Germany also has the 5 doors. My younger brother has the five door titanium with sideskirts. If I remember correctly they got the sideskirts from an ST in germany

Bought a new badge completely as mentioned previously. My old one had started to split and peel on the chrome around it.

the way i got around extending the washer pipe was if you give it a little pull not too hard but it does reach mine reached fine it was looped up in mine and once relased pulled straight out with plenty to play with :)

Well I've tried pulling it abit but I couldn't get enough free. I managed with the wire for the light itself but this just wouldn't budge. I'll give it another go tonight :) thanks

I wasn't able to pull anymore of the washer pipe through so just added a little piece on :)

Next jobs are new bulbs all round, and detango and then the EGR blanking plate :D

Thanks! :D I'm pretty impressed with it myself haha! Yeah I did most of it myself but did have a helping hand :)

Just need to take it back to the guy that sprayed it so he can just do a couple if touch ups. He seems like a perfectionist cause I can't see anything wrong with it but I'm not complaining :D
