Hi all

I'm Kevin. Owned My 07 Colorado Red since the start of March when I bought it from a dealer after seeing it on auto trader. I fell in love wiv it.

Lurked around this forum a few times when trying to find things out. Thought it was about time i joined the fun

I will drop in every now and then to say hello and ask for help every now n then no doubt, coz I'm always messing about on my car .

I have done a few bits already.

Fitted a new head unit, uprated the 5x7's to infinity reference's and fitted a sub in the back. fully soundproofed with butyl matting and MLV'd (mass loaded vinyl). Carbon vinyled some exterior and interior bits. De-tango'd the headlights. Fitted a Miltex flexi and KnN filter. Also fitted a smooth rear wiper and leather gaitor. oh, and a zusport rear grille..... so far that is

pics...










As you can see i dont have a spoiler fitted. I had the original nicked by some chavy girl's thingy along with the lower bumper reflectors and center grille which I since replaced.

Anyways. Enough about me . see you around guys n gals

Cheers mate. yep - Dont get me started about it. I have to lock it well out the way from pryin' eyes each night now for fear of it being raped. worst thing is I have a good idea who is doing it (they have done over a bunch of ST's and Zetecs in the area) and they're selling the nicked parts on eBay.

sorry...rant over

I like it, it looks tame without the spoiler. Should get some sort of spoiler that you could hide and reveal with the flick of a switch and get a sticker that says "you won't like me when i'm angry.." Should also use the same button to make it lower and noisier lol.. just an "angry switch" that transforms it from nice n happy to angry n mean ... if only :P

And does your head unit work with the steering wheel controls? I'm thinking about getting a new one but I want it to be 6CD and work with the controls..

Also, nice placement of the front ST badge

Looking smart there on a nicely loaded ST Some ST mats would look good to finish off the interior and perhaps the Ford Aluminium gear knob.

Welcome to knicked spoiler club Mines gone twice now. It was known who was behind it so a ground of people went down to knock 7 bells out of him but they decided against it when they saw he was built like a brick s*ithouse. Police were like "yeah we know whos doing it" but do sweat fa.

You sound like you know your stuff! I can see myself asking you for advice when I have the funds available for an audio upgrade

thanks Si!

mats are on my list mate, woz thinking about the illuminated knob but not sure it's worth the £80 cost

twice? shhhii thats f'd up! the police in my area are just as bad. worse than useless actually. drive round my area and theres some very sorry lookin st's an zetec s's with all manor of bits missing from them, it's very sad

do a search on ebay for 'st spoiler' it will surprise you how blatant these people are trust me!

I have it locked up out the way now anyway.

yeah mate the unit it supposed to work with any player/smartphone that can stream a2dp audio streaming (so most branded stuff made in the last 3 years will be fine). I have used an iphone 3gs and 4, a samsung mp3 and a blackberry 8900 on it no problem. there may be limitations, but i dont think thre are many

it does 30,000 different display colours as you can blend red green and blue together. And you can adjust the button colour and display area colour independenly or together. it also does a colourflow mode where it flows into all the possible colours at 3 different speed settings.
I have had a single din version of this in my previous car, and this one. I think it's great for the money. The built in EQ is paramentric so a little more fiddly than a 3 or 5 band graphic but i like it.

People say not to use tiger seal as if they do rip it off it'll really badly damage the top of the car. then again would rather the spoiler be unusable to the thieving bast*rds!!
