Hey people just thought i would put up an mmc about me new mondeo which most of ya all ave seen now and as u all know its pretty standard untill this next few weeks
So for those that know me will know I ave got a ford mondeo 2.0ltr tdci 130bhp in dark blue its pretty basic model but hey it does me it does wot I want it to do which is take me from work and back and to the meets and generally carting me body about cos im not to keen on walkin.
Well iv started makin a few mods to it by gettin the followin :-
Ripspeed DV720 4 x 200w Apline Door Speakrs 4 x 17" Black Rocket Alloys Window Tints
The mods for the car which are all arriving over the next three weeks :-
Mondeo MK3 Rear Combat Spoiler Smoked Side Repeaters Black Lexus Rear Lights Decent Front & Rear Number Plates Yellow Brake Calliper Paint
My Future Mods :-
Smoked Headlights / angel eyes Remove Bumper Strips on the doors Colour Code the Door Handles and Front & Rear Bumper Strips 40mm All round Drop Remove all Bagdes from the rear boot Colour Code the Front Grille Make a Few Minnor Tweaks under the Bonnet
Photos will follow shortly sorry i wont ave any of the before look will only ave just the after look
well i was thinkin of gettin all black or all silver but for the price it was a bargin and as im goin for the dark look i thought they would be good at the time lol and im really please with them they look great i think it splits the car colour up and gives it about of originality
just another quick update my smoked side repeaters are now fitted and also removed the mondeo lx tdci badges from the rear boot pics below hope u all approve
Expect a £30 fine soon if you want to keep them plates on

Unlucky matey, but Me, Andy, Chris and Pingu did say it wouldnt take long that night we where talking to you down the rock
Heh I saw it when he only had the back done and tbh, it looked okay with just the back done, as the arse on these Mondeo's is about half a mile in the sky to begin with, the lowering just levelled it out haha!!
Did you find out what the weird banging on the rear left shock is yet Ste??

Lmao Scott, you remind me of Del Boy:
Rodney: And the oil late comes on! Del Boy: No it does'nt, I fixed it Rodney: Oh so you actually bothered to put some oil in it then?! Del Boy: No, I took the bulb out!

Thats the way to go Scott, power on tap, only when you need it . Give me a shout and I'll let you have a look at my Zex set up (you know where my car still is lol), oh! and by the way, dont forget a Zex window switch to control that power.
