I actually just plan on just leaving the blue oval on there, hate the Fiesta name and the SES trim badge, I'm just weird I guess.

I just realized some of us are getting our Fiestas in about a month...I'm jealous.

The SES is going to go and will most likely be replaced with the S Badge of Asia for the Sport Fiesta.

So just yank off the E and one S and you have your 'S' badge.

But doesn't that mean you have the lowest spec car?

SES - SE - S ...

Step 1: un chrome the chrome
Step 2: Remove the SES badge
Step 3: Sell factory wheels and install my wheels
Step 4: Install short throw shifter

that is basically what I will be doing to my Fiesta within the first hour of it arriving. I already am working on a deal to sell the wheels, and next month I am ordering the stuff to unchrome the chrome. It will be painted black, covered with vinyl, or a combination of both processes. The giant chrome fog lamp thingies and the lower air intake are the only two major design flaws of the US Fiesta. One is easy to fix, the other is not so easy.

Do we have a thread for buy/sell of Fiesta or related (i.e. Focus) parts? I, for example, will be looking for a set of 15 inch wheels for snow tires.

I don't know who they polled about having LED Driving lamps but I want to smack these people upside the head for picking idiot styling that doesn't look cool over smart stylish safety. Trevor is going to have a field day with me in getting Euro 17' rims, S Badge, headlamps and taillamps. Now if I can figure out how to get the Asian Sport Seats, and retrofit front fog lamps if Ford doesn't produce a model with actual Foglamps is the good question.

That makes two of us! I am also beginning the search for 15" wheels for winter use. I was going to keep the factory 16" wheels for winter, but snow tires in 16" are very expensive. It is not that much more to get a complete 15" wheel and tire package from the Tire Rack than a set of just 16" snow tires. I ran P205/50 16 snowies last winter, but that size is not available anymore.


Birdman,
As for the import parts, the headlights is something that is on my list as a possible part to get. You can find tons of them on eBay, but nobody will ship to the US. I am hoping BAT Inc will have some items from Europe for sale, as it will be cheaper than importing them. If I find out anything, I will let you know.

[mrbirdman330]

Bryan, just go with Trevor at Fordpartsuk.com. They'll ship anything Euro to NA, if I have to take pics of my Euro Focus MK II headlights as proof just ask. Those headlights will be Genuine Ford, brand new and definately never ever used. I have learned going through BAT Inc is pretty much the exact same prices. So I go directly to the source.

And I'll say it again, I want to slap those people upside the head who wanted LED's over fog lamps. Obviously those morons have never driven in fog.
