Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I thought I would start a thread and show you all the changes I am doing to my 1.8 zetec mondeo. First thing I did was put a touch screen DVD head unit in the car complete with PS2 in the back for my son. Here is a few pic's of the transformation.

Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Next thing was a K&N airfilter. After that I decided to have a theme. Along came the new badges. Plus after seeing some other ford owners with LED interior lights I decided to get some. They look better in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOCA Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Nice, can you change your settings on your new head unit to red too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Nice, can you change your settings on your new head unit to red too? Thanks. Yes, but I have it on multi and it scans through all the colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Started to put on a flyseye kit yesterday but it started raining. Gonna finish it at the weekend. Took it to Topgear tuning in Stockport for a custom longlife stainless steal exhaust. Well pleased with the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted March 17, 2013 Author Share Posted March 17, 2013 Finished off the other side today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 Been a while because of the weather but had the chrome bits off the car and painted them ford radiant red. I like the indicators and the rear badge. Not sure on the front end so I might add a bit more red somewhere....any thoughts? Also waiting for a new set of gel badges as I knackered the last ones up removing them...silly me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOCA Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 In my opinion i don't think the red suits the grill and it looks better in Chrome (stock) or black or carbon wrap would suit it The calipers and the side indicators look good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stooge75 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 In my opinion i don't think the red suits the grill and it looks better in Chrome (stock) or black or carbon wrap would suit it The calipers and the side indicators look good yep i agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladeage Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yep the red and black thing is a bit eighties for me,chrome looks good as standard. Head unit etc was a nice upgrade! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yeah, I been in two minds about the red front. But I am thinking of adding a bit more to try and make it look better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohboy78 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I have to confess I'm not sure of the red... Good on you for giving it a go though., plus if you like it... who cares what everyone else thinks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger1978 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Sorry red colour spolis the car you should of got them all carbon wraped..im liking what your doing to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Im changing it to black carbon. Im keeping the badge surrounds the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Badger Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Your car, your choice. However, I would suggest that you keep the standard parts so that you can put them back on if you should ever sell it. As it is with all the red touches, it may seriously affect the resale value. No offence meant :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 No offence taken. The red front is coming off and I am getting them carbon wrapped. I think it will look much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 Changed the red, I admit it looked naff so I went for carbon fiber vynal to cover it. I also out on my newly painted Mondeo badge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason 'Tweek' Batty Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 Oh I almost forgot to add pic's of the tinting I had done a few weeks ago. Opted for just the rear being done, which I thought was the est option. Really please with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegtuk Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Interesting choice of colours, i agree the grill surround didnt look right being red but the rest looked nice, can you get a distance shot of the front with the carbon on. are you going to paint the upper and lower grills too to match the rest of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger1978 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 like the carbon look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
