Default Ford Fiesta MK1 Question

Hey guys!

I have a question. Which is obvious by reading the title!

Anyway, I am wanting to know if anybody knows where I can buy the orange Ford Racing "vinyl"(?) from? I am going to be partially styling my MKI to look like the one below!



Thanks in advance!

How do you know the mk1 posted up there is of a mates???

My point is why style your car on someone elses?? Surely you'd want your car to be unique, not 'like the one that was featured in Classic Ford last year'

miaow bitches, surely if the guy likes that particular style and wants to takes Ques from it then its a sign of admiration and a good thing, if every xr2 owner bitched about someone else having pepperpots on then there would be handbags at dawn at every car show

signal orange is an awesome colour right enough how much you been quoted roughly for the job

Not really, there how the car came standard, but if your modifying surely you want to be unique, not a follower??

Tosser?? Seems a bit harsh considering youve never met me, save your opinion til you have

All im saying is, style your car your own way, not on what someone else has done, if everyone done that the car scene would get very boring!!!

Sounds good mate, signal orange is a nice colour, and you dont see many mk1 fiestas painted in it!! Personally id leave the kit off and slam it

wasnt having a dig about your choice in wheels as your right there standard and up there with the best choice of wheels for mk1 just saying that theres nothing wrong with taking bits and bobs from other cars and making your own up from there,
did your mate completely come up with the idea of the graphics himself or was he inspired by something he had seen cause if it is the case that he seen something and made it his own then thats all this guy was gonna do
