DEVSR2 Posted July 13, 2019 Author Share Posted July 13, 2019 Thanks @OllyY - that looks cracking ! Any drop in DAB signal? I had a shorter aerial on my other mk8 and DAB dropped all of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a shorter aerial on my other mk8 and DAB dropped all of the time I couldn't tell you on the DAB signal as I can't stand radio, Spotify only for me. Although I have read in other forums/review pages that others haven't noticed any difference. Paintmodz also say that they haven'y had any reports regarding signal issues. They definitely look a lot better, fairly cheap and easy to install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like the thought/look of the red calipers but could do with seeing a bit more as I'm super tempted to get mine painted. Not a great one but here you go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djs1972 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 https://flic.kr/p/2hJvsjn Hi I have an st line x and wanted to have it remap’d but wanted to have the option to remove the map before services. Is a Superchips bluefin the only option. I have seen race chip GTS (piggy back chip) but cannot find much info about them. My mods to date are European mk8 black edition vinyls. Red rim protectors (dealer fitted) LED fog lamps upgrade from CEUK to match the colour of my all LED headlamps. https://www.carenhancementsuk.co.uk/collections/mk8-fiesta/products/enhanced-edition-led-h8-11-fog-unit Thanks.

What is the difference to the one that comes fitted as standard to the STlineX ? I am presuming here, you have removed one to fit one. Unless that car is a non X St line and they don't have them fitted as standard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tateybread29 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I will have to find the link for the exhaust tip from eBay. I did have to modify it slighty to fit . If u look at the standard st line exhaust it has an exhaust tip as standard which is welded on but with a bit of cutting to the bigger exhaust tip from eBay it fits nice. I will post some pics soon of what i did and whats required to make it fit. I just think the back if the st line is abit too standard looking for me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tateybread29 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151567238918 Link for exhaust tip, from the photo u can see i cut out 2 long strips of metal which enables the strap clamp to go around outside and pulls exhaust tighter. Please note you need to order a 70-80mm clamp from eBay aswell as its required for the modification. If u look at ur standard exhaust u will see a metal nip at the bottom that sticks out.the cutting of the exhaust tip with help slide it along the standard exhaust nip.

BustedCeramics Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Haven't seen anything about tech, did sync 3 retrofit, reversing camera, front/rear sensors and speakers/subwoofer. I know there's people here with insane sub setups, would love to see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tateybread29 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I just installed mountune primary,secondary hoses,turbo hard pipe and k&n panel filter. Anybody have any thoughts on the sound difference or performance gains. Mines definitely got more dump valve kinda noise. Don't see how the turbo hard pipes can make much difference as the diameter of the pipe is the same as the plastic standard one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0JAC0B0o Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Anyone have a titanium version of the fiesta (5 door) ? I just got a black one and really want to change up it’s styling not too fussed about engine mods yet @Darren-mk8 your car looks amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsk Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I have a Mk8 Titanium 5 door magnetic. So far have fitted shark fin aerial, battery cover and fusebox cover, all from Paintmodz. If you go for the shark fin aerial make sure you select right one, there are two different types. Also mud flaps and Climair wind deflectors. Bonnet lifting struts as well. Surprising how useful these are when you don't have to use the support strut. I have also fitted an engine cover but this takes a lot of trimming to fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
