First mod after winning an ebay bidding war was these 18" Zetec S alloys

I then tried me hand at some carbon wrapping but after having little sleep and being up since 4am i could only manage to get the garage door looking ok

post-37742-139673994364_thumb.jpg

Added the Zetec S lower grille

post-37742-139673998941_thumb.jpg

Eventually the alloys needed refurbishing so off the bodyshop they go decided on gloss black as i think they suit the car very well

ford parts are really expensive.. i rang them up earlier in the year for service bits, oil, oil filter and air filter then wanted like 85 quid if i remember right......

That's unreal! Haha

I got a cheap copy off ebay and it didn't curve properly, luckily for me I wrapped it and bonded it to the bonnet.

Really feeling the three door looks, good job!
