Just fitted my morettes. i havnt painted them the same colour as the car, fitted them as they came as they come in black plastic. so opinions please, should i paint them, and do they look any good ?













And before anyone says the number plates fooked, ive order my new plates from ford, i pick them up tuesday

 

suit the car really well i reckon!!

 

definitely suit the car you don't notice they're not painted and the won't crack either

When I got my old saff painted years ago he asked if I wanted mine painted when I said no he did look at me funny

 

They look spot on Fiddy

 

Cheers gents. so whats people opinions on this, im thinking of losing one of the lights for a direct air feed to my induction kit, and tinting the indicators lens in the morettes

 

look mint fella you need to change that plate though lol.I think you should take one of the lights out then put in a cold feed induction pipe for the viper air filter.

 

My mates got his own bodyshop, thats where i fitted them today as its been pissing down. he said he will paint them for me for peanuts if i want them doing, but tbh, i like them how they are i think

 

Mate, the number plates getting done tuesday as i said, if for anything, to stop you winging about it every time i see you lol


So you think i should lose a headlight like the pic above, and make a direct air feed to the viper then

 

Looks good mate, need to change that front plate though!!!

The other one you posted looks good, I tinted the headlights on an old astra I used to have, looked fucking cool as an 18 year old lad, but the lights were shit at night!

 

look very nice mate...id ba happy with them.

 

looks ace mate

 

Looks smart that, and even more so with the smoked indicators, don't like the look of a light missing though

 

They suit the car the car mate

 

deffo the right choice mate

 

they look better but i have them on mine, now get a hid kit to make them look better at night

 

When your 18 rich, looks is far more important than function lol

My number plate ?, hadnt noticed there was anything wrong with it


Cheers for the comments gents

 

very nice mate and it suits the car

 

loose the light

suits the moody dark look of your car perfectly

i think theyd look good painted, but then the wheels would look odd as the lights and wheels have a good colour match so leave it

 

looks spot on to me as is, although i'd spray the silver mesh to black too

 

Looks well hard. Not sure I'd bother with the painting, on any other colour yes, but I like it as it is on black.

I wouldn't bother with the ducting bit though, you might get a bird fly up it.

 

Its on the to do list mate, aswell as colour coding the boot handle, with it being a ghia x its chrome, its awful

 

 

looksthe part with the inner one removed. Ihave some morettes for my RS Turbo but i was undecided on them, they always look better with a cold feed removed

 

Lights look cool,not sure about the indicators though.I think they look batmobileish left clear.Maybe tinted or try a orange quality st wrapper in there to see what it looks like.The only other thing I would do is change the number plate

 

Mondeo's probably one of a very few Ford's that look really good with quads. Nice addition

 

very nice. def leave them unpainted

 

Are those my wheels that car with the duct is sat on, I think so!

 

Agree al, mondeo's and escos, not to keen of them on many other fords

 

Escos rims aye

 

Looks well mate ... Very Stealthy ..

Thought you Had a MK6 Escort?

 

looks good mate really suits the car

 

I really really dislike monorettes, but...............

They look really good on your car. The tinting and removal looks superb too

 

I did for about 3 month, till some theiving pikey coont knicked the wheels, then the insurance wrote it off. I had a v6 Mondy for two years before the gti, so I bought another one

 

hard as nails fella

you going to fit a splitter to finish the front off ?

 

ohh and i still reckon you need 19s ,

 

Lightbrows also give it a more aggressive look

 

Aye mate, it's on the to do list. As far as 19's, would be nice, but it's getting lowered -50mm next month, gone eat tyres, 17' tyres I don't mind buying, 19', ne chance lol

 

Personally, I say get them colour coded and they do look better with the indicators tinted.

Yep, are your old wheels. Got stretched tyres on now euro stylee and shall be changing colour later this year also.

 

Love yours buddy, looks HARD !

 

Cheers, much appreciated

Adding a few Marmite mods this year that'll divide most, but looking forward to getting them all done. Hopefully shall all be sorted and ready to break out by Ford Fair this year.
