never been much of a morrette man myself unless there on full blown rally style cars

did you not keep your orignal lights when you changed to morrettes or did the morrettes come on your cos when you got it

When I got my car it looked like it does in my sig pic

It had the morrette headlights fitted and I hated them, sold them on Ebay and bought new genuine Ford ones with enough money left over to buy a curry

I really like the carbon bits to be honest. Got the strut tops from Carbonetic and the Cam cover and spark plug cover from Creative Carbon



but I really like my wee subtle touches , such as the Ford badge on the Super T's, really discreet and amazing how many people comment on them.

mmm liking the ford badges reminds me of the rally mag's

im a carbon lover too, perfer it to chrome but unfortunatly i only have a rep as its the best i can do at 18 but everything is genuin practicly and its been in fast ford mag so its not all bad

got a nice engine build to stick into her tho so she wont be hanging around

Mine has to be the smaller number plates. Makes a big difference to the look of the car for pennies.

agreed but only on the front for me, imo small rears look daft as theres the space left from the recess in the boot for the bigger plate.

works well on the front though

My White rondells, then someone in the area done the same, so i changed the car back to complete standard including Orange indicators, apart from the morettes, they have stayed, looks so much better with morrettes in my opinion.

The best style mod has to be lowering it, they sit far too high as standard

wouldnt know where or what to say first.

new graphics over the car with the new wheels look sexual, but at the same time the new dash panel made by Dave (Twins) is something to drool over!?

or it could even be the new kevlar buckets ive eventually got fitted.

oh fook it, im loving my car at the moment
