So today I picked up this beautiful bea
 
She is a Diamond white No2 Final Facelift ST220, Currently on 79,400 miles with a full Ford service history. Plus extra notes in the service book for "blue Light" If anyone can shed any light on what that means.
 
She is in absolutely amazing condition and a completely standard untouched beast. In the last 3 years alone she has had approx 6.5k spent on parts and maintenance at an RS Ford Dealership, including a clutch in July 2020.
 
So as always I have a few plans for her     
 
Asbo conversion - Fronts - Bought Being Refurbished
LED bulbs throughout - Part Bought
Exhaust - Miltek Installed 
Shardz Detail - Complete   

Flint/Black Alcantara interior - Purchased

New Badges - ST220 badge Purchased - Mondeo badge Purchased

Heko Wind deflectors - Installed

HEL Brake lines - Purchased

subframes powder coated and poly bushed

autofold mirrors when locking car

upgrade keys

Wheels - To be determined

 
 
I want to keep her as close to original as absolutely possible and anything I do change the original parts will be kept 
 

Finally named the Beast

I have gone off the idea of a splitter now 😂🙈.

Yes mate she really is. Dont get me wrong. There are some small things I want to sort. Ie underside of the skirts need a repaint. Along with jacking point covers. And a few marks on the alloys.

Im going painted for off season and diamond cut for summer I think 🤔 so need a second set.

     but its just these few things Honest

I'm all for the mods you are doing, I don't really see them as mods, more improvements

IMO don't do the splitters, once lowered they look good enough, but it is only my opinion

[markjlev]

Splitter idea has gone in the bin. And lowering is only a possibility lol. Bought the springs for my silver one. They sat on the shelf and got sold with the car lol. Couldnt bring myself to fit them 😂

[markjlev]

Hekos arrived and fitted 😊😊
