Been busy and you've done a good job.

For my money though I would have to put the numberplate back on the bootlid and put the original bumpers back on and lose the badybwoy bonnet

Well you asked what we think,

I think its looks aweful!! ,
When I saw the first picture, I thought he's bought a ruined FRST and he's going to make it look like a FRST again, but no,
To me it just looks like any Fiesta thats got into the wrong hands. I think an RS should look like an RS,
If you don't want it to make it look like an RS why buy it.????
You could of bought any old mk3 and put a bodykit on and a silly exhaust.

As I say its my opinion which you asked for.

the car is not really my cup of tea but the guy has done some good work to it, its his car & aslong as he's happy thats what counts. Did your mother never teach you 'if you've havn't got anything nice to say then don't say anything'

She taught me to speak my mind !!!! , Opinions were asked for, and thats what I gave , It didn't say please say something nice about my car, or don't bother? . My opinion is, is that it has been ruined !!!

Not my cup of tea either looks a bit like it has done a ram raid at the local Halfords store but then thats my opinion and everyone has their own ideas and thoughts on what they like and dislike . Its your car mate so you have it how you want it

TBH I'm not a fan of the way that car looks either

At the end of the day mate its your car and you can do exactly what you want with it.
But you asked for opinions and thats what I gave you.
Good luck with whatever you choose to do with it.
