Your body shop must have relatives involved in the Fiesta launch.

Mind giving the price you paid to have a bodyshop paint the 3dcarbon kit?

Just ordered that kit and a spoiler myself, both only "ready for paint" as well as some colormatched paint for my car, but not too late to cancel the paint if a bodyshop doesn't charge much more. Was just assuming since the price difference between an unpainted kit and a painted kit was @$750, that I'd be looking at $500++ at the cheapest to over $1k to paint the body kit and spoiler.

You and Rodewaryer have me convinced that I should just hang on to the two sets of SVT Contour E1s I'd been trying to sell for the inevitable day I get a Fiesta - as I'll bet they'll look pretty good on one, too.

I bet they will look even better. I have a personal rule when it comes to a car's stance. The wheel gap between the top of the tire and fender well should NEVER be more than the height of the sidewall. If it is, the car just looks lifted.

Those 16" E1s would look great with a stock suspension as there will be more sidewall on those 16" tires than what the 17's have.

^^ Good to know.

Meanwhile, that hot, white Fiesta that's here with the 3D Carbon kit and white-painted wheels (BRGT350's) also gives me hope for the look of the E1s on a Fiesta, being that the spokes of his wheels are also scalloped...

I've been enjoying my Fiesta since August 10th, but I'm just now getting around to putting up some pictures!

Here it is sitting at the dealer:



Here is a shot after I went for my first drive up into the mountains. Made it up to about 3000 feet before the road was closed.

Nice pic there in the mountains. Blue flame just looks great.....

We'll be watching to see what accessories you come up with for the wee beastie. Hopefully you'll pick up on what's being talked about here on the forums......

And the lip kit is on! They painted the back valance even though I told em not to, but oh well, tomorrow I'm calling Ford Racing to find out when I can get the suspension.

Looks great! I kind of like the valance being painted. I've seen it a couple of times now and it's growing on me.
