hi all im new to site ive always been interested in doin up cars sine i was back in school now decided to do somat about it i have mk 4 fiesta only think i done so far is wack on some 15inch wolfrace alloys and debadged it now i noticed alot of lads fiesta on here had removed that awful gray line panel across the door and im wanting to do that so anyone can tell me easy way to do it be great help



and before anyone says owt i am aiming to get rid of the shit gay bumpers just need to find the rights ones at right time i.e when i have money to get em lol

 

those gray strips are a pain,mine wont come off and they don't seem to stay on either.

 

Get some fishing line and run it behind the trim in a sawing action to cut through the glue. Then use some thinners or something to get rid of the residue. Thing is though the red will have faded quite a bit and it will be fresh paint underneath the strip so might need some work to get the rest of the paintwork to match!

I personally wouldn't do it though, they are there for a reason. I did it on an old car, and within a few months there was car park dents along the doors from inconsiderate cunts opening their doors into it.

 

heat them up with a hairdryer and pull VERY carefully.
As for bumpers, aftermarket normally look shit on fiestas, zetec s bumpers are the only nice ones

 

I had a mk4 which i modified slightly until MOT time!i removed the stupid side stripes with a flat headed screw driver and brute force to pull them off. Not the best way left few scratches! However the best way to do it is to use a heat gun to warm the plastic off as this then softens the stupid sticky stuff behind the strip. To remove the left over sticky s**t use something that wont scratch the paint pref a platic tool. this should do it mate.

 

thanks guys taken note on all ya comments cheers
