I thought it would be fun to start a post for subtle cosmetic mods. I like small mods that don't drastically change the appearance of the car, and want to see what others have done. These are interior/exterior cosmetic mods that would probably go unnoticed to the regular person, but someone with the car or an enthusiast would notice. Here are some of mine:

White/Carbon badge overlays from TFB Designs - http://shop.tfbdesigns.com/Emblem-D...d-Fiesta-ST-LOGO-OF-YOUR-CHOICE-FIESTAEMB.htm

Carbon fiber license plates (also a close-up of the badge overlays)

I also plan on doing the door pillars in carbon fiber vinyl and am upgrading the shift boot from redline goods which I will post once installed.

Post up yours with pictures!

I updated the original post to include the link... I didn't see bronze in the drop down but it's possible he will custom make them, as you can type whatever you want in the logo so they might be able to do custom colors too.

Removed the stock lower grill and replaced it with a mesh grill with neoprene edging from customcargrills.com

I thought I would like the lower open grill look with my new CPE intercooler, but the vertical slats don't look so great to me from medium-close distance. In comes the new mesh grill and I am very happy with the way it turned out. I cut it myself utilizing the lower OEM grill to measure, a silver sharpie and wire cutters. It fits pretty snug but I went ahead and secured it with zipties just to be sure.

6in. x 36in. Hexagon XXL Grill Mesh Sheet - Gloss Black
Neoprene Rubber Edge Trim - 1/16in. Opening

Looks good. I've seen a white FIST with white ST emblems too. It looked really nice.
