Hi Lads (and lasses!)

Im looking into buying a mk2 fiesta for my first car, i was hoping some of you lot could post up some photos of some for inspiration?

Im hoping to go down the 'clean and tidy' route rather than the xr2 replica look... Something along the lines of the Carrera one!

Any photos wold be greatly apreciated!

www.xrtwo.com is your best port of call!!

 

Yeah ive looked on there, i got fed up of seeing xr2 body kits! I dont want it to look faster than it is, i just want it to look really tidy. Lowered on little wheels... Sort of euro, but not full on.

 

There are hundreds of non-kitted mk2 fiestas on there, more so than normal ones. Look in the 'your fiesta' section for inspiration..

 

This ones my attempt at a sleeper. It did have a roof rack on but it wasnt great for fuel economy

 

haha, looks tidy mate!

Ideally i would make this one a sleeper, but i dont have the funds for a high powered car, so im gonna make it tidy, i dont want it to look quick, as it WONT be fast lol, just so that a if i pulled up next to a bloke in an rs500 he would still respect what id done....

 

This is my Mk2 fiesta started out a 950cc then i fitted a 1700 crossflow engine now i am fitting a 2.1 zetec turbo engine






This was my cousins old Mk2

Brian, yours looks good mate!

One thhing you may be able to help me with is the plastic stips on the side, I notice your car has had them removed, but your cousins still has his.

The fiesta i'll hopefully be buying has the big chunky plastic rubbing strips down the side, but i'll want them off! is that going to require body work doing or do they just pull off and polish the paint underneath?

Thanks mate

If you remove the plastic strips down the side you will need to weld/fill the holes where the strips fix to the car

So it would need a respray afterwards? I really like the clean look that it gives the car, Any idea how long it would take?
