Cars looking great mate, if you are wanting led footwell lights, I would recommend the panel led's as the bulbs don't cover much and are bareley visible

Cheers! I actually got some LED Panels from CEUK but one of them broke when I attached the adaptor so I'm stuck with one working one and one broken one. Might try again at some point as you're right when you say the bulbs are barely visible. It has to be totally dark to even see that they're on.

So since the foot rest, or "dead pedal" or whatever you want to call it was delivered its been sitting unopened but I finally got around to installing it today so I thought I'd share a couple of pictures. I think it adds a nice touch to the foot well and compliments my Lockwood S kick plate pretty nicely. Please excuse how dirty the inside is, believe it or not I cleaned it last week :(

And of course I couldn't avoid a quick picture while I was out!

I'm definitely going to think about the TRC front and side splitters when I next get paid. That extra little low-line touch would look amazing from this angle!

Dirty?! If that's dirty then mine must be classed as the inside of a bin lorry :tongue:

If you're thinking about getting TRC I have a discount code for 10% off!

I think I'm a bit of a clean freak, that's the problem!

Oh that would be super helpful, a little bit of money saved is never a bad thing :laugh:

 

Edit: Speaking of TRC, do you know of anyone that has fitted their rear ST style diffuser and would it be a straight swap from the stock Zetec S rear? (http://www.triplercomposites.com/product/ford-fiesta-mk7-5-rear-diffuser/) I kind of prefer the gloss all in one look over the usual ST valance that people go for.

Small update:

Ordered a K&N Air Filter which arrived today so will hopefully get that installed tomorrow after work. TRC front splitter has also been ordered along with some 3mm red tape to do a pinstripe effect along the edge of the splitter and wind deflectors. Final thing coming is the gel "S" wing badges from DMB. Looking forward to getting these few bits put on the car. 

Will probably also get a sun strip fitted at some point as well.

My pin stripe tape was delivered today. I had only planned on using it on the wind deflectors and the front splitter once its fitted. However I decided to try a line of it on the diffuser. I'll let you all decide what you think but personally I like it; I think it breaks up the flat grey/black nicely.

looks good mate. How did you manage to get the chrome badge that says "fiesta" black?


It was actually like that when I got the car. But if you wanted to do it you could just follow the usual de-badge process (heat and fishing line/floss), paint it black and then just stick it back on. I might have to do it to mine soon as some of the paint is starting to chip away. Either that or I'll just leave it de-badged.

fair enough. You got a link to the 3M red tape? 

I just went for some cheap tape on amazon, 10m for £2. Its great for smooth surfaces like the plastic deflectors (still on after 2 washes and plenty of rain) but the diffuser stripe has fallen off twice because of the rough texture. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0042XXM8S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Haven't updated this in a while as I hadn't done much to the car. After having ordered an ST style rear diffuser from Triple R Composites about a month or so ago I finally got around to fitting it today after work! Pictures don't really do it justice but as its the first major visual change I should put it on here! I've also got some RallyFlapz from Performance Creations which will hopefully be going on in the next week or so!

The only other change is that I finally fitted a sunstrip to the front windscreen. Its just a simple gloss black one and I have putted a thin red stripe at the bottom.

My only other plan, as well as the RallyFlapz, is to paint the front brake calipers red, just to make them stand out a bit more.

Anyway, that does it for this long overdue update, let me know what you think of the rear diffuser!

the rear diffuser looks good mate and like the sun strip too might add one to my focus but unsure lol. the rallyflapz will make a difference and will also stop stone chips on your skirts and will help stop some crap sticking on the doors.

Fiesta looks really nice, how easy was the red trim? I've a Maxton splitter coming for my focus and was having similar thoughts

Cheers! Yeah, once I get the flaps on I'll be happier with it, and perhaps an exhaust trim just to finish off the back.

Thanks! The trim is probably the easiest part to be honest. Just buy a roll of pinstripe tape (I used 6mm but am considering getting some slightly thicker) and then follow along the edge pressing down as you go. I'll link the video I watched before trying it myself. I'd suggest putting the tape on before you put the splitter on the car to make it easier.

Cheers! You definitely should! I think its a nice little touch to the front of the car. I went for gloss but a matte strip could look quite good too. Yeah that sticker is the "oil Slick" one, changes colour depending on the lighting. Contact Andy Rushton of the Ford Bible FB page for any stuff you want to order :) They have quite a little selection now.

Is it possible to attach the rear valance from a 13 plate zetec s (mk7.5) to my 12 plate titanium (mk7), trying to make my car a bit sportier.

As far as I know, yes it is possible. I'll copy and paste an answer from @Iam2deck on a similar topic as he seems to know better than me:

"I have done this in my build project. I think you need to just have the spat attatchments (the side attatchments under the fog lights that extend down) in order to fit the diffuser. I personally couldnt find spats cheap enough so I managed to find a rear bumper from a black edition which had the spats already, and the bumper and spats were in my colour too for £65. I then fitted that bumper and then attatched the zetec S facelift diffuser to it! It makes a big difference to the sportiness of the back end, been one of my favourite mods so far"

This is the thread for reference:
