Quick question : any one knows where i can get my hand on colour coded (or unpainted ones) side mirrors, colour doded door trim and rear boot trim?

I dare not ask the ford dealer here because know they would not have any instock, would take ages to arrive and would burn a hole in my wallet.

Any help owuld be appreciated. Cheers guys.

P.S. - good forum this...lotsa helpful tips

Name : Dave
Age : 39
Location : Melb
Occupation : Project Engineer (Yes at Ford...)
Fiesta : XR4 Silver with blue stripes (Called Silver; every car sgould have a name))
Mods : None; Want a private number plate to complete my Mid Life Crisis LOL.
If I had the money: Finish my 1988 Mini and get her back on the road!

Maybe one of the oldest XR4 owners and proud of it...

You don't stop playing because you get old...
You get old because you stop playing!

Fighting old age disgracefully...

Picked the car up about 3 weeks ago and still grinnin'. Worked out longer back route to work so I can enjoy the handling and leaving for work early to miss the traffic: Sad old codger but happy!

Reminds me of my Mini which I built when I was 18; small, hard ride, handles like "a rat on rails" and very fast. even comes 'on cam' like the Mini at 3000 RPM. Forgotten how much I missed that fun driving untill I got "Silver"

XR4 is a real spiritual follower of the original Mini Cooper (not the BMW but the 1960's original hot hatch... Yes well spotted the Mini ain't a hatch but you get my drift!)

BTW first time I have been inspired to join a forum...

Hi There!

2 Days ago I picked up my brand new Zetec Fiesta(no pics as yet due to rain) If anyone could tell me where to get the side skirts for them id greatly appreciate it.

still havnt figured out how to use this site...i can be contacted at kimmy_jayne_85@hotmail.com also!!

Before Friday I drove a BA XR6 Falcon which my partner is now driving. (he traded a fully worked wrx for me to get fiesta)

Since I got the zetec he is in love with it and wants an xr4...if we can get past the $13thou the falcon has depreciated since we bought it 12 months ago and weve only paid $4thou off the loan somehow!!

Im new to here , and my fiesta...any help and info would be appreciated!!!

[zetec jim]

G'day!
Your best bet is trying a ford dealer, not many companies make them for the fiesta.
if you do an 'advanced search' on this forum you can browse all threads on body-kits for the fiesta, might be some useful stuff.

[ZetecBaby]

Am I able to create new posts??

[zetec jim]

yeah, its just that this has already been talked about a bit and most info found. but, yeah feel free to start one

you could try: www.carshine.com.au then look under 'other-makes' in side column of website.

Hey Guys, thought I would say a quick G'day. Im usually over in the territory forum but recently my girlfriend got herself a WQ Fiesta Ghia so I thought I would drop in and see what other people are thinking of them! I feel like tinkering with her little car... Anyone know some simple, effective mods that dont cost the earth!?

I'm Ryan btw! Live in melb, freelance cameraman, 25.

Cheers!
