Do you think LightWurkz made a set of head light for the Fiesta ?
They're the ones that did those above - they've done a handful of sets for me for other cars in the past and there really isn't anyone else I'd trust doing one-off headlights.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I haven't had much time to work on the car since the last update. I was able to get the Cobb cat-back exhaust installed and I picked up the Cobb intercooler a few days ago as well. This weekend's plans include finishing almost all of the rest of the build including the Cobb Tuning downpipe and engine mount, the Air Lift suspension, Baer brake set up, Eibach bars and LightWurkz projectors.

Once all that's done, it's time to do the audio install and then one last trip to the body shop to paint a few small pieces and then install the lip kit and rear spoiler. I still have five or so weeks to get it done and I'm way ahead of schedule so I'm not too stressed out... yet.

I'll post some updates for you guys soon, I promise.

You've built some awesome cars! Looks like the Fiesta is no exception! What exactly did LightWurkz use to seal the headlights? Is it true that they have to be cut open? Some beam pattern shots would be awesome once they're installed and aimed.

Okay, so unfortunately I didn't have as much time as I would have liked to get working on the car this weekend but we made some good progress. Most of the Air Lift parts are in, front shocks and bags, rear shocks and backs - the tank, compressor and the rest will be done soon. While most of the suspension was torn apart I installed the front and rear Eibach sway bars that I had powder coated to match the brakes and also the Cobb Tuning engine mount. More updates coming... hopefully soon.

A few more minor updates - only having two or so hours a day to work on this is making this Air Lift air install take longer than expected but it's almost done. All of the air lines are run, compressor is mounted, electrical is run through the compartment and just has to be finished up in the engine bay and lastly, just the tank has to be mounted. Soon!

Front shock/bag set up:


Rear shock/bag set up:


Overall view of the rear which also shows the Eibach sway bar and Cobb Tuning cat-back exhaust... and no, the car is not Battleship Gray.


Air Lift dampening adjuster:




Cobb Tuning engine mount:


The underside of this thing is completely filthy so once it's all done, it's getting back on the rack and getting cleaned... I can't stand how dirty it got during ride over from Detroit.

Hopefully production but just like any other product companies put out, there has to be a demand for it. I'm not too sure how many Fiesta owners would consider it versus the other options out there but what do I know haha.
I called air lift last january, they blew me off. I decided if i were ever to go air I could easily piece together the things I
need. So they lost at least me as far as demand
