D13 HPD 95 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Evening all, I said a couple of weeks ago I was looking for an ST and well I've just today purchased this little beauty ST-2 Colin's performance CP300 pack - big mouth air intake, forge air intake with pippercross filter, mongoose cat back, and flash tune Lowered 20mm, US spec grill, and front splitter not had much done but plenty more to do :) so I guess I better start a project thread again if anyone saw my fiesta I had a few years back 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commencal24 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I agree, looking forward to seeing your progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Andy_M Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Looks absolutely stunning! Loving the US spec grill! One thing I can't help but notice is the bonnet... that gap between it and the bumper seems a little bit big! Looks almost like its not shut properly! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed the picture was taken with the bonnet not closed properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Tbh to me it looks like the front end has dropped rather than the bonnet being up.Look at the angle of the gap above the headlights.Sent from my SM-G930F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Could be the bonnet is slightly bent up at the lip.Sent from my SM-G930F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D13 HPD 95 Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 Cheers for the comments, how would I know if the front has dropped a bit? I see what you mean, and I've got a newer photo defo with the bonnet closed to compare on how it looks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D13 HPD 95 Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 Done some digging there is 2 rubber stops which the bonnet rests on when closed and these can be turned down the gap gets smaller, Ford nearly set them to a standard height during manufacture, so I'll adjust them tomorrow, previous owner either didn't know or from the dealer never questioned it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philf1 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Welcome back Dan the fiesta is a great car as we both know but the focus just feels more sturdy. I'm sure the power upgrade you've got makes yours a beaST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D13 HPD 95 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 Phil, good to be back, yes the focus is a lot more roomy and feels safer, it truly is the fasted car I've own so far, I'd like to compare it to a stock RS see if it could keep up, plenty more room for improvement with it how much performance wise I do will have to see as to me the power is currently more than I can use due to narrow roads etc round my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
