This red ST looks awesome.

What are your thoughts people?

You think it's ruined the ST look?

I wouldn't mind doing this to mine.

I imagine you'd have to change the headlights to get that bonet to fit. Thats if you can even get headlamps that can fit a bonnet like that. Cant see it being possible personally.

That looks a very expensive job to me. Bonnet, lights, flared rear arches, door handles removed (thats more bodywork and paint), looks like 18 or 19" inch wheels, lowered to what looks like an inch off the ground? so you would need the suspention stiffened to what i could only explain as driving a brick.

I think it's great doing this kind of project if,
1/ Your gonna take it to Ford shows, etc.
2/ You've got the money.

If you're not going to take it to show off at Car shows, and you have the money,I personally, would sell what you've got and buy a FocusST.
I think the only thing i like is the chrome/white surround on the fogs, and that depends on the colour of the car.
On saying all that, it is down to personal preference, and it is your car. I mean look at this guys car...He thinks it looks the Dogs !

I might do something like that with the bonnet, and get Focus ST mirrors with the signal on them. Could the Reg plate go in the windscreen?

Think it would be illegal in windscreen, could mount it on bottom grill though. how about just changing the bonnet to somthing with a vent in maybe. would still be pretty unique

I totally don't like the bonnet, But just like ST_One i do like the chrome surroundings.
It's to low to be of any use on a daily base, just for the showroom.

But that's my opinion, it's your car, and your money.

Grtz

I agree don't very like the front and driving at night may be a problem loosing bright of the light, then its too low to drive everyday with it and it will be an expensive job not worth it ! instead like Kevin say buy a Focus ST or RS better money spend! That my view but ur money ur choice!

Think you'll find it is a light cover rather than a bigger bonnet ? Saw 1 with the light cover at fordfair, Loving the silver piped fogs

Thats clearly a photoshop so the bonnet has just been digitally extended. You could get a similar affect with light brows but not exactly like that. Would be a cheap mod and i think it would be to your liking

Also think its worth mentioning that the silver edged lights were part of the original concept for the Fiesta ST. They were dropped for the production model
