The Mountune car's front.



Never really compared the US front to the Euro front, but now that I have, wish Ford would have left it alone. I like our little change for the fog lights, but overall the Euro front is just better looking, although it looks way too Mazda like.

Where did you find the picture of the car????

When I look for the Mountune, I don't see the exact front end like this one (the bezels on lower grill look like speakers)???

I found that pic on the UK's Fiesta/Ford site.

Here's another style that looks like may fit our front with some modification....although I never seen it in person of course, so maybe not.



European-Parts

The bottem looks like it follows US bumper covers lines close enough, although the top will probably need a bit of shaving, epoxy and repaint.

Also, the ebay UK has lots of euro front bumper covers for sale for maybe $180US, although shipping will probably kill the deal. Then, you'd need a Euro hood as well unless you are handy with custom modding and can change the little grill section around the Ford rondol to work with the US hood and the Euro bumper cover. Or actually add on a little more length to the euro bumper to meet up with the US hood. Or make a strip addon to the US hood so that it meets up with the euro bumper cover.
