Default Rs/Xr2 fiest mk 3 body kit onto 5 door? calling experts

as above, is it possible to fit the rs bodykit onto a 5 door fiesta.

just got a whole kit, front back bumpers, skirts and arches, and only just realised her car is a 5 door. (come from the world of subarus, where this isnt a problem)

can arches / skirts be made to fit, or is it a no go? im guessing the front and back bumpers are going to go on ok without any issues, is this right.

cheers

very nice mate, looks good! i think it must be the back arch that needs work. think it needs cutting down thinner, but will know morte once the parts arrive

The work needed is only doing the stud holes on the arches to hold it on. Then you need to either cut the door edge to fit around the arch and fill the holes, or cut the arch down the middle along the door line and fill the holes. Look for Tweeks thread on fiestaturbo and you'll find both examples in one thread. The bumpers just go straight on (though you may need to lop off the front tow loop like I did).
