FiestaGirl89 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Always found the fiesta without a spoiler to look a bit 'boring'. Got any other plans? Blue blooded Well only a few smaller things so far. I've got new brighter bulbs for all round to go in, EGR blanking plate to fit and eventually get the alloys sprayed. Any suggestions?

MikeyPaine Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Tricky with a 5 door. Otherwise I'd say skirts. It does need dropping on it's !Removed! a little! Even 30mm should suffice. Egr blanking plates alarm me a little, but that could just be that they're a pain in the !Removed! when people don't tell me it's fitted and I'm trying to diagnose a running fault... :) Blue blooded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaGirl89 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I've dropped it by 40mm already haha :) but tbh it could be lower. yeah I've been looking into the side skirts, front splitter and rear diffuser. Just need something that fits! Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonBon Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Good stuff! Lowering springs are next on my list.. How did you find applying the graphics? Was it quite fiddly? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaGirl89 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Good stuff! Lowering springs are next on my list.. How did you find applying the graphics? Was it quite fiddly? Thanks :) it wasn't too bad tbh I just took my time. I was supposed to get them fitted for me but I'm abit impatient and just did it myself! The only thing is I have 2 really small air bubbles in the entire thing. You wouldn't be able to tell but I know there there. How low are you planning on going? Is yours a titanium too?

JonBon Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Well, with wallpaper when you have tiny bubbles you take the finest pin or needle you can find and put a tiny tiny tiny hole in it the use a fine brush to or a sponge to smooth it down, if you are extremely light you will never see the hole and will be able to get rid of the bubbles. However, this works with wallpaper, I don't know if the same principle carries but might be worth asking a professional. Mine is a mk6 facelift zetec climate, there's a thread called project Ruby with a few pics, only had the car a couple of weeks and am still planning at the mo, I want to buy all the pieces and spray them myself so I don't ruin all the old bits, it's just quite a slow process finding the right bits at the right price!

Sounds good I'll have to look into getting rid of the bubbles and you thread.

FiestaGirl89 Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 I finally got around to blanking off my EGR valve! I had no idea how to do it so I followed a guide off a guy called Lenny on here and it was really helpful. It was quite fiddly actually putting the plate I thought tbh. That is the best pic I could take of it! The only other thing I've done to my car now is change some of the bulbs. I bought Osram Cool Blue Intense bulbs off a website called Powerbulbs.com. If you use LOYALTYPB you can get 10% off your order :) The pics aren't that great tbh I do need to take some more so bear with me and I'll upload them as/when I can! So that is my before and this is how it looks now. Like I said the pic isn't great but I'll upload some more soon! :D Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiestaGirl89 Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 Haha only the mondeo. He has a build thread on here too. Ben87 he's built it up himself!! Deffinately worth a look. I wash it and polish it all with Autoglym. I love it, doesn't take too long to do either but gives a really good finish! Deffinately worth a try :D Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my HTC One X using Ford OC mobile app Thank you! :D I use Auto Glym, I think I've put pics on here earlier of what I've got. Finished it off this time with the super resin polish and then the sealant.

The Admiral Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I normally use "Bilt Hamber" products as it's wins most car magazine challenges good stuff too, I start with clay bay , Resin polish, Finis wax and auto balm, looks fantastic! but am going to try "Poorboys" next as other F.O.C team members Recomemed it Sent from my HTC One X using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiestaGirl89 Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 Yeah I've heard a few of them mention poorboys too actually!

FiestaGirl89 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Not posted anything in a while as I haven't been doing much to my car unfortunately! I've just bought a set of 17" alloys in frozen white, which I have been looking for for ages now, needless to say I'm well looking forward to getting them :D eep!! Hopefully they will arrive tomorrow so I can get then on Saturday afternoon. Other than that I've changed the air filter to a Mountune Performance air filter, swapped my washers over to mist washers (thanks to Andy199) and removed/added a couple more stickers :) Then gave him a good scrub! :) Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
