@BRGT350 - You're installing the 4 piece body kit right?

Could you do a photo installation guide for us? I want to see what it looks like, etc... there's not much online that I could find - and the accessories store doesn't have installation instructions for it yet.

What are you guys getting for prices on the body kits? Just a reminder I sell them at wholesale prices.

From what I can see in my pricing, there is a $765.00 difference in price between a painted on and a non-painted one. The non-painted is of course cheaper.

Pricing example
VAA6Z-5820049-JA (blue, painted) Msrp $1579.00 FF $1372.45 (plus S&H)
VAA6Z-5820049-AA (primed only) Msrp $699.00 FF $607.56 (plus S&H)

VAA6Z-5820049-JA 4 pc Body Kit (Hatchback)- Blue Flame Metallic SZ

update: I have an email into FLA to get the directions for these. Hope to have an answer by tomorrow.

 

[BRGT350]

I was able to get an advanced copy of the instructions from a contact at 3D Carbon. The actual instructions should be on Ford's Accessory site very shortly. The install doesn't look bad at all, and it says about 2 hours to complete. The rear bumper cover comes off, and that is the most complicated part. Everything else just fits into pre-existing holes or you drill new ones.

Bill, as for prices, I was able to get mine for $1579, even though the parts department said the MSRP was close to $2k. They worked with 3D Carbon and said no issues price matching. This was way before the kit was available, so there were some changes going on with the system. Ernie at 3D Carbon was awesome to work with and is getting my kit ready for me.

Once the kit gets here, I will get a good set of pictures on how it goes on.

Thanks bill - doesn't look difficult at all!

Not sure if I'm going to pick this one up or wait and see what aftermarket ones start appearing (I'm pretty sure fordracing is also working on one)

I think I found an image of the body kit - kinda sexy!

It also looks like they took the chrome off of the LED lamps - I think Bryan was also going to do this, but how?

 

[TeamFord]

Here is another one I just got.

Are the euro bumpers direct replacements for the American Spec Fiesta?

[BRGT350]

no, the EU bumpers are not a direct swap. The front requires a different hood, and some sort of modifications to the crash structure. Not sure about the rear, but I would guess the actual steel bumper is in a different spot.

It's a trap! Warning to all: the pictures on Marc's link are huge and will likely slow down your computer momentarily while they're loaded.

Those are the ones on the side of the bumper? If so, the base model comes with black ones.

I realized that later - they either blacked them out or swapped the chrome ones for the SE Sport black ones

 

[Guido-Fiesta]

Yeah I too would like to swap out the chrome LED plates for the SE black ones, anybody know if this is an easy and cheap mod? So basically us in the US don't get that cool Euro rally style front bumper unless we modify quite a bit and spend a good amount of money? That's lame I was really counting on getting the Euro front bumper with the wide mouth...oh well.

 

[CFM Fiesta]

I will check into the price of the black ones...
