I've had my ZS a a couple of months now and already I'm dying to make it my own! Who's with me? Share your idea's / customisations guys!!! I wanna see, got so much love for the new Zetec S haha!

So far I've only de-badged it and added a decal on the window screen. For now I'm thinking of lowering it, getting some hub centric spacers (15mm - 20mm) front splitter, wrap the wheels and fit a new full exhaust.

I'll be posting photo's as I go along :)

There's a graphics place near me that cut it and stuck it for me, £20 which weren't too bad. Mines down the passenger side, you'll see in the photo I attach. And yeah I was waiting till I've lowered it to see how far I want to push the wheels out. I'm thinking 15 on the front, 20 on the rear :) I saw somebody post a video of their new exhaust (Miltech I think it was) it sounded so nice!! post-42049-138912318267_thumb.jpg

Ah it's just my nickname mate, I'm obsessed with diamonds and the "dope D"... Long story haha! I haven't really looked into exhausts yet so I don't even know how much it'll cost! What do you look at paying usually? I don't wanna spend too much on this fiesta cause I'm gonna be getting the mustang when It's released it 2015 ;P

sweet lol, n i won't ask haha well exhausts are hit and miss there is loads out there, or you can get a custom built one for about 300 but millitek costs about 600-900 so a bit more lol I'm looking t cobra for 350 is mid range looks good and sounds good also around 10bhp apparently

i said that but changing for a company car, but things happened and i reckon I've put 2 1/2k or more easily ( after this body kit 3k ) into my fez and loved every penny spent but I'm gel about the mustang !!! would love one but going to be far too expensive i think haha

also got my springs for 75 on eBay which is cheap and they are quality, or you can get a set of coil overs for 230 for the fez on eBay thats cheap and they are top german ones :) endorsed my mighty mods i think so they say on their website so there are bargains out there for wicked items :) i want to keep going on my fez but have no idea what away to go, either down the rs look a like or any mod goes haha

Wow, that's a fair bit! Haha. I'll probably end up posting something about exhausts to see what brands and prices are best.

I've got some coilovers, they literally got delivered today. Will get them fitted this weekend, I can't wait! :D

You got the mk7.5 as well? What've you done to it so far?

Oh okay thought so, just wanted to check haha. What does it take to do the front bumper? I've been thinking of taking off my front reg plate (just keep it in the front window incase the piggies pull me lol) but when I took it off there's the two holes where it's fixed, looks a bit naff

Plastic weld the recess, plastic weld the grille surround and then respray the bumper :)

Is that something I'd be able to do myself? My uncle can respray for me, he's about to cover up a scratch I found over the front passenger side wheel arch

Slightly subtle modification.. Batman overlays, maybe a little childish of me but I think it looks awesome! Haha. (Excuse the filthiness, don't get time to clean it during the week. post-42049-13892879102_thumb.jpgpost-42049-138928787663_thumb.jpgpost-42049-138928788811_thumb.jpgpost-42049-138928789956_thumb.jpg

Not really something you can do yourself without really knowing what you're doing

I'll be honest mate, I have pro sport coilovers. £250! Had them on about 3 months now and have had any problems with them. Check them out in lowerks website.
