Firstly, I know Irmscher isn't dedicated wholey to Vauxhall.

Basically, my missus' has a Ford Fiesta that she has just got back on the road. And I wanted to get her some bits and pieces to finish it off for her birthday. But I know next to nothing about Ford's, so wondered if there is any 'tuning houses' I should be searching for when looking for parts?!

Already seen some MHW rear lights which would look mint on her car as it's black, but they're pretty expensive.

Thanks in advanced.

only other option is aftermarket horribleness

These were the lights I mentioned:




It is weird how there is so much stuff available for Corsa's, but not Fiesta's. Items like debadged grills etc are non existent.

She does have a GhiaX model however, so around the grill it's the chromey glass effect plastic. In the summer I'm going to try and source a Zetec one which is body coloured. It is weird how Depo don't do lights for them either, as it could easily be done.

Yeah, they have some stuff on their site. Quote expensive for Fiesta's though, compared to Corsa's.

Same shape as my mates g/fs Fiesta.
Tinted rear lights look dead nice on a subtle Fiesta.
