Looks great mate!
Love the rims, they look sweet.
Out of interest, how much did the knob and the scuff plates set you back?
I have been considering getting them when I go in for my 3000 km service.

Haha that's what I said (above). I'm pretty sure I either paid $130 or $138 for my leather gear knob... And all I purchased was that. I hadn't even bought the car from that dealer...

hey photn, doesn't the gear knob come with the 'chrome' trim ring for the lower surround too? I can't see it in your pics. I was thinking of getting one soon too...

You bought a zetec and it didnt even come with floor matts? thats poor effort.

Photn, buy a vaccum cleaner :P

Other than that. the car is looking nice, just buy some ST fiesta springs to lower it a touch.

i have a vacum cleaner. just CBF. going to pay 25 for a WASH, WAX, POLISH, and full interior car detail. my mums work does it while there working.

going to lower it on eibach springs.

the reason it didnt have any extras is cause my dad when he ordered the fleeet car forgot about the car matts and all that. dumb ***.
