Oliverb Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Hi all, Basically I wanted to start this post as I am always looking for neat/smart little modifications inside and out and I know that others are too...so I thought we could all share our ideas and pictures to give inspiration. I have already got the climate control dials, change all interior & exterior lights to white LED, new reg plates! i just stand staring at my car thinking of things to do!!! I don't want to turn it "boy racer" just make it look smarter... But please any ideas go ahead and share them :-) I am in the process on of adding the Zetec s body kit but I am after little ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliverb Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 Sweet, what are euro style fog lights then? I will be getting DRL fog lights soon, can't wait for them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue4life64 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 It's when you replace the red rear fog with a clear reverse light and fit a red bulb. Nice little mod which costs around £30 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigante Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Just so you know.. There are two dedicated sections for mod ideas now. One section is for various mod ideas, the other is for members personal build threads where you'll find every mod they've personally done to date and plenty of inspiration for your own mods. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Oh yeah of course :-) will add that to my list . Will it pass MoT with that?? . Definitely, as long as you use a red bulb you are compliant. I'd advise using a Cree bulb as the red ones you usually get from dealers that sell the European fog lenses look more pink IMO.

Alexm Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Gel overlays from dmb to freshen up your ford badges, on the grill rear and wheel centre caps. They are Brill. New fitted mats always make the inside look nice, get a nice deep heavy pile one like u get in new BMWs. Plain black shortened aerial ? Not a Barry Chav chrome ripspeed one, just a nice short one to make it look slicker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexm Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Oh what about fan washer jets too? I have a spare set u can have for the cost of postage, as long as yours aren't heated ones, I bought them and then on taking the sound deadening off realised mine are actually heated !

Alexm Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Know it's only a little suggestion, but maybe paint your calipers black ? I'm thinking about doing it on mine as pitted stained metal from wheel cleaner looks crud ! Oh and dustcaps If you live in a nice area and kids are scared of you ?

I have painted my callipers black already and rear break drums , they look loads smarter! I didn't want to do red or blue , just incase it looked like I was trying to hard... So yeah go for the black I'd say mate .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
