What did you do to your Fiesta today?

Took my car in to get washed and vacuumed (normally do it myself). My car gets hit by the Civic behind me as it comes off the push track. Their safety trigger did not work and pushed the Civic into the back of my new Fiesta. So I got a small dent in the bumper.... Ugggg
 
Nice. I was talking to the guys from Mountune the other day at a car show, and they mentioned some nice 1.0 news. I wonder if your order is related. ;)

As a result, my latest upgrade is a Mountune Air Freshener. :D
I don't have the 1.0, so probably not :)
I have the 1.0 and am super interested in what Mountune has up their sleeve. Please share!
 
That was because the level of water was to high. The mechanic told me the owner had very bad luck because when he was passing through the puddle, a big truck passed on the side and made some waves that covered the engine hood. No CAI, just stock air box.
Everything must have been just right (or wrong) for that to happen! What a bizarre way to kill a fiesta :(
 
I added LED license plate lights on both Fiesta's. My wifes Focus came from the factory with the LED license plate lamp, so I thought I would match it up with the Fiesta's. I also removed the front bumper on the 2014, removed, reshaped, and flipped the front license plate bracket. Pics to follow for bracket flip.

I had my new DiodeDynamics LED projector Fog Lights installed today - They look amazing! The lenses look like little jewels with the chrome rings.

Before (Halogen reflectors with Philips DiamondVision 600K bulbs):

As a comparison, here's a before and after night shot of the lights from a recent install on a Focus ST, which uses the exact same fog lights:

This looks great Dirty! Do they overrun the lowbeams? Wish mine had factory fogs. I will be adding some and these lights will be on the list.
 
Rims look awesome Hack, I have same tires and love them, I did notice after about 20K miles , seem to start getting noisy (but I may have a bearing going out, still checking that since sounds like from passenger rear, rotated tires and still there)..but the grip is awesome and for the price, really good tire in wet as well and great thread wear, well played :eek:
Thanks Mach! Yeah, I am putting money into the 15 SE and not my 14 1.0 until the engine pinging gets sorted out on it. 20k before the tires got noisy seems reasonable for a performance tire. I have a set of the previous Ventus Concepts on our Suzuki Aerio that has a tad over 20k on the set. They have worn completely even and are making a bit more noise now but they are not 'humming'. I am very satisfied with that and would be icing on the cake if this latest design performs even better.
 
The rims look great!

Glad to know about the tires, I just put a set on my new wheels and I like them a lot so far. Not bad for the money. They say they are low rolling resistance, did you notice your fuel mileage staying the same? Worse? I haven't really seen much a difference in my 1.0.
Thanks Party! These are on my 1.6 (see previous post about my 1.0) and the fuel mileage has stayed the same at about 37 mpg. This is my second set of the Hankook's and will get them for my 1.0 IF we can get the issues sorted out. Lots more to come for the 1.6 in the next two weeks as I have suspension to install, Borla exhaust, and need to get the ST wing painted....
 
Out of curiosity, where did you get your emblem? Did you install one on the front as well?

Size and specs? I wouldn't mind getting on in black for my Tuxedo Black Fiesta :)
They are simple decals that are precisely cut to fit over the factory emblem. I got them at http://www.tfbdesigns.com/
