Gavin’s ZS Project

Hi folks, I’m Gavin and this is my ZS project page. Click on any pic to enlarge :)

Bought the car at the end of February as i had been on a test drive and loved it the moment i set foot in it. I’m only 19 and this was also the best car i could get insured on. 1.6 Zetec S not bad for a first car!

This is the car the day i got it home. Still standard… Quick wash then fired out for a drive. Used a few barrels of fuel that night!

I’m only an apprentice at the moment so after splashing a fair whack of notes on the car i couldn’t spend much on mods so began tinkering with the cheap end of the mod scale.

I had ordered a few parts off ebay and they came the next weekend, these included Black/Red DMB gel badge overlays, red valve caps and Climair wind deflectors. Went for a wee photo shoot after i added these.

Bought some mirror caps from ebay, 19.99 for the pair. Sprayed them gloss back.

And here’s pics of the car with them fitted!

Next job was to colour code the interior plastics to match the Colorado Red paintjob. Here’s a few pics of the process

Then fitted a DMB gel badge onto the steering wheel.

Next mod i did was fitting a drilled airbox with Pipercross filter. Makes a difference to the sound and feels a bit nippier in lower gears.
Here’s it mid change

Last mod i done was painting my upper grille gloss black. Here’s a few pics of the process. It’ll look better once i get round to doing the other grille.
