Love it Adam, you've done so much over the just what 2 years or so, I enjoy how simple and subtle some of it is, it's still unique to who you are and that's what the FiST community is all about
Good idea with the video as I bet it will help others make their mind up what they want to do. I have a 65 reg' Fiesta Mk7.5, 1.0 Ecoboost and have gone for subtle mods, so far. Under the bonnet and boot using a dress up kit (orange) from CEUK (also some shiny parts for the brake fluid cap, oil cap, fuse box top and over the battery), interior and boot light mods using LED bulbs. I went for red in the foot wells and boot, and bright white for the interior roof mounted lights. De-egged the indicator lights along with (all LEDs) the reversing and rear number plate lights. I recently applied some 5 mm orange tape to the (standard) front splitter and rear bumper.
Hi Adam,love all your videos,very informative and helpful to a fiesta st newbielike myself(you have cost me a fortune in mods in my 2 month ownership Lol!),keep doing what your doing,all the best,Steve.
good video. only recently discovered your channel but your work is inspirational for me and my channel. i also have a blue st. i did have mp215 but wasnt impressed so changed to peron stage 1 map almost a yr ago but only last week added the itg filter.mountune springs i did a few weeks back also. iv got lots of mods planned and taking the car to nurburg in a months time so plenty to do in preperation. keep up the good work
Great video Adam, car has came a long way from when I started watching you, car is looking very clean and well looked after. Shame I didn't get to see you at ford fair! Take it easy mate, looking forward to more content! Mods you should consider: Braided Brake lines Magnetic sump plug Replacement ST badges (dmb graphics) Mountune springs Painted engine bay 😊
Cheers Lewis! I try and look after it yea, could be better for sure. I have no doubts that our paths will cross in the future :) I am considering a few things but not sure if my painting skills would be on par with your wizardry!
Great video Adam, don't suppose the person that supplied the dead pedal in the USA still has the drawing for that so I can get one lazer cut. Suppose i have to ask :)
I got it ordered from the site where there the 3d printer file was uploaded. I think there is a link in the video I did on it! Beyond that if you DM me on insta, I can point you at a great chap that has 3d printing facilities and could make one for you
Hi Adam,after reading many performance upgrade reviews I've decided to move on from Mp215 to Collins performance Cp2,with the mods I've done already (mountune high flow induction hose/quick shift/roll restrictor/catback exhaust/cold air intake)I think opening up 1st/2nd gear as well as more low down torque plus a bit more bhp,with all the mods you did to your St 180 I was surprised you didn't move up from Mp215 before moving onto your RS Focus-not a criticism but more curiosity,cheers,Steve.
Hi Steve, it came down to either putting money into getting the RS or putting more money into the Fiesta so I just made a decision to hold off on Fiesta work while I looked into the feasibility of getting the RS
Car looks great Adam. Is crying out for some lowering springs and spacers. Handling and body roll will be so much more improved. And if you’re worried, i have a trc splitter with lowering sorings and it never scrapes.
Adam Rainey it can take some time as it feels odd if you havent driven a lowered car (like me) before. Im used to it now. Just feels so more grippy and you have the same tyres as me 😉 pilot sports, yeah first couple of bumps can be a little worrying but if you drive over them as you do normally (carefully) nn issue. I am on h&r springs so 30mm front 35mm rear, but if your worried the mountunes sit the car slightly higher. Or coilovers you can set the exact height you want. Its your car tho adam and as long as you enjoy it thats all that matters.
Any plans for performance mods such as new intercooler, more powerful map, coilovers etc... Or just sticking to visual stuff like stickers and eyebrows? Used some of your guides by the way, thanks
Great looking car there, Adam. I'm looking to wrap the roof of my ST in gloss black as it lowers the overall look of the stance. Who makes that gorgeous carbon rear wing?
Kept it tasteful which I've been saying to you for a while now. Keep it tasteful. Only mod I'd do to your car is the ST gel badges. Unsure as to what colour I'd recommend. Maybe yellowy orange to match the Mountune etchings.
Bruh, what job do you have to afford all this? I've looked up almost all of the mods either by myself or your suggestions. Man, those little things add up!
No front window tint? Or is that not allowed in the UK? Got almost the same things, plus Stage 2 Cobb, and Yellow HIDs on all my lights minus the High beams
Yea I'm pretty sure adding front tints are a no no here and also HIDs would fail the annual test we have to do called the Mot although some people do get them and switch them out for the test, same as decat would fail the emissions test but some folks do it and switch it out
@@AdamRainey yeah I can understand the Cat being required for emissions test, I live in California (the only state that really does emissions test) but luckily we only do it every 2yrs, so not bad. And as far as HIDs go, white and Yellow are really the only Legal colors so we're good on that.... I didn't know you guys had tough lame laws for ur cars
Cheers Slimj 🙂 As far as wind deflectors go, I've never been bothered about the look (kind of neutral stance) and never felt the need in terms of function in NI
Lol that's true I moved to Scotland from east Belfast 5 years ago and it's worse lol but there's always 5 weeks of the year where there great to have lol
Do St mods tit on base model Fiesta’s? I have a base model 5 speed 1.0 and it’s hard to find mods and I’m not sure if St mods fit. Anyone have any advice?
My god, your ST looks fucking incredible. Mine’s just sat there like a basic bean :( Any chance I can buy your stock alloys from you, if you still have them?
@@AdamRainey I think the St wheels in anthracite would look unreal on the clio It is 4 stud 👌 P.S i challenge you to upload a 30-60 video in 3rd gear ;)
LOL burn! I agree tho. If Mr Woolley looked back at my list of vids he would know that I used to have risers but removed them when getting the carbon wing. With regards to spoiler lip, I think it would cheapen the real carbon sticking a piece of cheap plastic to it
@@AdamRainey There's being an enthusiast and then there's telling somebody what they need for their car lol. Just got my Clio remapped today by SBR remapping in Derry/Londonderry (keep everyone happy) Made a huge difference
Lol definitely. Nice, what power are you putting out? I like your political correctness lol Don't forget the folks that think we should all be speaking Irish language as well 😉
Love it Adam, you've done so much over the just what 2 years or so, I enjoy how simple and subtle some of it is, it's still unique to who you are and that's what the FiST community is all about

Hi Steve, thanks for the kind words, I appreciate the support :) All money spend on car parts is money well spent I say lol
Looks good! These sorta videos really show you how much work you put into your car
Cheers Ash! 😊
@@AdamRainey Whoever got your FiST got a very nice car.

Cheers mate, I have plans to hit the ring in the future too!
@@AdamRainey Yeh go for it. I'm a bit scared of crashing the fiesta but fear should keep me safe. I hope lol.
Yea either safe or keep u running in the opposite direction if you do bin it! Lol
@@AdamRainey I may set up the my key thing so I can only go slow and no loud music lol.
Next mod for you would be mountune springs i guess. It'll make your ride for responsive with the whole package. Good vid bud!
Great video Adam, car has came a long way from when I started watching you, car is looking very clean and well looked after. Shame I didn't get to see you at ford fair! Take it easy mate, looking forward to more content!
Mods you should consider:
Braided Brake lines
Magnetic sump plug
Replacement ST badges (dmb graphics)
Mountune springs
Painted engine bay 😊

Hi Jon, all I can do is point you to the guy and you can ask him: www.fiestastforum.com/members/no-pistons.68/
Sweet vid Adam. I get my mountune exhaust fitted tomorrow. I can't wait.
Cheers Jonathan, you will love it!
I thought they were out of stock? Or do they keep workshop stock only sometimes?
Another great video Adam. Car is looking sick. Love the carbon wing.
Cheers mate! I love the carbon too!
Looks quality mate, where did you get the 3D printed ST hole filler for the interior ?
I got it ordered from the site where there the 3d printer file was uploaded. I think there is a link in the video I did on it! Beyond that if you DM me on insta, I can point you at a great chap that has 3d printing facilities and could make one for you
Looking awesome dude love that rear diffuser
Cheers Luke! Yea i love a good diffuser on any performance car!

Nice reviews mate just subscribed.. getting my fiesta st3 next Saturday!

Thanks Teddy! These things are on my mind, cheers for the insight - speed bumps do scare me!

Used some of your guides by the way, thanks
All I can say right now is maybe! Cheers!
I like the mods you have made. They are all good.
Cheers Jonathan!
Thanks for the video 👌🏻 very interested in the leather armrest you’ve modified! Where did you get this?
Hi Thomas, I got the leather from ebay and then I nodded the arm rest with it myself (there is a video of me doing it on my channel) Cheers!
Adam Rainey yeah cheers mate I saw both the link and video after I posted the comment.
Don’t think it needs anything doing.. starts to look tacky..
Although.. yours are in keeping 👍🏼
Great looking car there, Adam. I'm looking to wrap the roof of my ST in gloss black as it lowers the overall look of the stance. Who makes that gorgeous carbon rear wing?
I love a roof wrap, defo adds to the aggressive stance! It is made by Seibon
Nice one,, subtlety is the way to go, !! Subtlety is one of those words that looks like you've spelt it wrong, ha ha,,
good video bud,,,,
Cheers John! I like subtlety but I'm not against a bit of 'in your face' style, subtle is just what kind of happened! Lol
Great video, loved it!
Cheers :)
Kept it tasteful which I've been saying to you for a while now. Keep it tasteful. Only mod I'd do to your car is the ST gel badges. Unsure as to what colour I'd recommend. Maybe yellowy orange to match the Mountune etchings.
I'm not sure gel badges are tasteful!! But each to their own
Cheers Daryl. I would only cover the badges with carbon (which is available from a supplier!) but then I love the blue oval so don't know if I will!
Yea, not sure if they are my thing!
@@AdamRainey I mean the ST logos them selves. The blue oval is pure sexy
Ah ok, yes I hear ya. Could be an idea...
Did u put all these mods on yourself or just took them to the ford dealer to do?
All myself other than roof wrap and exhaust
Nice work! Where did u yeh the little ST logo from that fits in that gap in the centre? Nice touch
@@Rebelz173 just some dude on ebay!
Love the RS but gotta say I miss that ST hahaha...
Fair play mate, from time to time I do still have a look at some old photos I have of the ST that I took off my camera :)
Lovely mods... Nice vid buddy
Cheers mate! 🙂
Bruh, what job do you have to afford all this? I've looked up almost all of the mods either by myself or your suggestions. Man, those little things add up!
I'm a senior software engineer
@@AdamRainey whelp, that makes a lot more sense! Thanks for the videos!
Cheers Paul, thanks for being a viewer!
Looks well buddy 👍
Cheers Glen :)
Great video!!! Is it just me or does Adams hoodie strings really annoy you? 😂
Defo annoys me lol
No front window tint? Or is that not allowed in the UK? Got almost the same things, plus Stage 2 Cobb, and Yellow HIDs on all my lights minus the High beams

Hi chap .Can I ask were you got your rear reg plate as it seems fitted to the shape if the boot. Can you supply a link at all
They are from mountune www.mountunestore.com/collections/mk7-fiesta-st/products/bespoke-number-plates
Quite surprising you don't have wind deflectors cheap mod and changes the look alot. Nice car 👍
Cheers Slimj 🙂 As far as wind deflectors go, I've never been bothered about the look (kind of neutral stance) and never felt the need in terms of function in NI
@@AdamRainey what do you mean by function in n.i
@@jaydog5007 most of the time the weather is too crap to even entertain the idea of opening the windows lol
Lol that's true I moved to Scotland from east Belfast 5 years ago and it's worse lol but there's always 5 weeks of the year where there great to have lol
Approximately how much do you reckon all this has cost you in total?
Probably best not to think about it lol
True! 😁
Do St mods tit on base model Fiesta’s? I have a base model 5 speed 1.0 and it’s hard to find mods and I’m not sure if St mods fit. Anyone have any advice?
Some will, some wont. It depends on the parts in question
Where did you get your carbon Wing from matey?
Direct from Seibon
still got this st buddy?
My god, your ST looks fucking incredible. Mine’s just sat there like a basic bean :(
Any chance I can buy your stock alloys from you, if you still have them?
Cheers mate! I do still have the stock wheels but they may be needed for something happening soon!
Bonnet vents think you should do
Get an itg cold air intake
Sell me your Stock ST wheels bud ;)
I need them unfortunately!
@@AdamRainey I think the St wheels in anthracite would look unreal on the clio It is 4 stud 👌 P.S i challenge you to upload a 30-60 video in 3rd gear ;)
You need spoiler wing risers and a spoiler lip
You need a new Profile picture
LOL burn! I agree tho. If Mr Woolley looked back at my list of vids he would know that I used to have risers but removed them when getting the carbon wing. With regards to spoiler lip, I think it would cheapen the real carbon sticking a piece of cheap plastic to it
