e94rjones Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Hi I have recently got a new 12 plate Ford Fiesta Zetec 1.25 3dr and would like to make it look like the Fiesta Zetec S 1.6 I've been told they are the same car (like shape etc) just different add on's, is it possible to do this, what will I need to do and how much would it be likely to cost? here is a picture of how I would like it to look once complete; http://www.virtual-s..._738344_0_0.jpg Any help appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Gonna cost a fair penny, the kit is quite expensive on it's own, the wheels without tyres are about £140 a piece I think too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b1g_dav3 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Oh yeah it's completely possible, and not sure, I'd imagine the body parts wouldn't cost you all that, wheels too may be pushing it though. Honestly may be better going after-market, something similar to what they put on some random special edition I keep seeing driving instructors running round in. There is a company that makes the kit for American Fiesta's, not sure if they'll be cheaper or not, and depends if your car is 3 or 5 door? http://3dcarbon.com/...l2=2&l3=8&l4=14 - 5 door styling kit, not 100% sure on the front piece, but at $720 dollars is probably similar to here once you pile on shipping, but is an option for the 5 door.

iNath Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 £1,000: eBay 2nd hand = yes Ford brand new = no way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e94rjones Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 £1,000: eBay 2nd hand = yes Ford brand new = no way do you know what I'd need to buy like alloys, front and rear bumpers, anything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 do you know what I'd need to buy like alloys, front and rear bumpers, anything else? Side Skirts, don't forget those. Lowered suspension too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e94rjones Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 bump, does anyone know how much I'd be looking at paying doing it at Ford garage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark M.K Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 £1,000 won't even cover the parts if brought brand new from ford. Also remember all parts need to be painted and fitted at extra cost. Heres the prices i've found from Ford Online Parts: Rear spoiler: £202 Rear diffuser: £225 Side Skirt Left hand side: £168 Side Skirt Right hand side: £168 Zetec S Grille : £70 Front Lower diffuser: £154 Totat: £987 + delivery I am unable to find a price on the extended front bumper for the Zetec S bumper. Then you need to add alloy wheels at £150 each. So thats another £600. Then you need 17" tyres at over £100 each. Also you then need to tell your insurance company. So expect a massive rise in your insurance cost too. Need i carry on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I'll make a shopping list on the Ford parts catalogue when I get home and post it up here. Prepare for a shock though, when I made one for leather seats it came to over £8,000... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iNath Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Right for; front lower grille, extended front bumper, side skirts, rear spoiler, rear diffuser, rear bumper caps, alloy pedals & alloy wheels it comes to £1,655. And that's primed so you need to pay a bodyshop on top ;) Oh, and add £400 for tyres too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
