Default ST'ing an LX

Hi all,

Just brought my girlfriend a brand new LX and being a guy I want to make it look a little different......I was searching around the net for some modifications. I saw some Uk sites with the ST model thats over there.

I like them! I want to know if there are any parts available in Australia, or anywhere in the UK that I can bring here.

I want to start with the stripes on the doors. But I think it will look better with the mould taken off, rather then leave the mould and add the stripes. Thoughts?

I also want to colour code the door handles and the mirrors.

Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks!

Try. http://www.fordpartsuk.com/ they have heaps of ST stuff. I'd leave the mould on. As the sides of the fiesta are flat, the car will look taller without them and we can't have that, must be low.
