What did you do to your Fiesta ST today ?

[M-Sport fan]

NICE!

I will have to consider those, and that mounting technique, if the ARA brings back many night stages to their events in the future (IF there is even any ARA/U.S. rallying left after this mess we're in ).

Back in the 'old days', almost HALF of STPR's and Maine Forest Rally's (now NEFR) were after sunset.

Looks like two cars flashing each other.

Thanks! I need to start a build thread but they're TSW Blades. Heres a shot with the caps on, pre lowering

Their website no longer lists the FiST, bummer. Not that I have the money for new wheels mind you.

I was pleasantly surprised at how small and light the lights were. I was going to build a bracket but this seems sturdy. Time will tell.

Shaved the Koni’s and swapped wheels.

Spent the past day repainting the crash bar (after removing the honeycomb backing) and installed Baja Squadron Pro2s.

Why did you remove the hood strut kit?

If it’s like mine it pushes the hood out of alignment and makes the seams look crappy...

One got bent in the crash. And the other makes it impossible to open the fuse box without breaking the lid. In thinking of selling the kit. Btw after the crash my replacemenr hood and my latch dont seem to be playing well. It doesnt spring up like it used to. Wonder if i need a new latch mechanism.

Things are never perfectly straight after a crash. Hell, they're not always perfectly straight from the factory.
I suggest that you find another Fiesta (doesn't have to be an ST), and compare them. That might help you see where yours is off.

I know the latch support is still bent up. That wasnt replaced ( and im ordering a replacement tomorrow. It may be throwing it off just enough. I also know its a cheap repro hood.

You'll get it right.

 

[PunkST]

Yup. Its a small thing compared to a bunch of other fixes. Im betting a standard fiesta latch support may work.

I appreciate your tenacity. It will pay off.

Look at the alignment as it closes. Might be able to move it a lil with some force. I had a q45 some dip shit lady backed into me while waiting to leave a parking lot. Hooked up a big ratchet tie down to it and a tree. Pulled the latch right out so the hood could latch closed. Pulled it like 4 or 5 inches.

Ive adjusted as much as it will let me currently. The latch support is twisted a bit. Not something i csn easily bash back. If a new support doesnt fix it, more reason for carbon fiber hood. Lol

New license plate lights came in.
LED bulbs in stock housing on left, LED replacement panel on right.

I bought the panels because the clip on one of the stock housings broke off and the other was about to. New housings were $7 each, so $12 for the panels was a no brainier.

Holy hell these are bright. Visible in today's bright sun.
