Glad you're okay, fracturing anything in your back is a scary thing. New Fiesta looks great! You think you'll shave the honey combs of your grill in the back so that crash bar is more visible?
Finished shaving off the honeycombs etc. and applied fresh black paint to it [like]

Little advice for those going with EBC USR slotted rotors, the rears are 10.0 inch dia. USR280 and the fronts are 10.9 inch dia. USR1963. I accidentally ordered the 10.2 inch dia. USR1676 in May and found out the hard way :( - The fronts will be arriving early next week.

Part#: USR280
Product: EBC USR Series Sport Slotted
Position: Rear; Set of Two
Rotor Size: 10.0 in. Dia.
For: (2014 - 2014) FORD FIESTA ST L4 - 1.6L ENGINE VIN: X TURBOCHARGED


Part#: USR1963
Product: EBC USR Series Sport Slotted
Position: Front; Set of Two
Rotor Size: 10.9 in. Dia.
For: (2014 - 2014) FORD FIESTA ST L4 - 1.6L ENGINE VIN: X TURBOCHARGED
Thanks for the above notice, since these are one of the replacement rotors I am considering once I need them. [thumb]

I believe, (but I may be wrong) that these are actually cast and machined in England, as opposed to mainland China like the rest of all of our available factory replacement rotors. ;)

Correct. Shipped over from England.

I originally bought the lines/pads/rotors from http://www.autoanything.com/ (best prices at the time of purchase) they said the fronts were correct, however after I installed the rears(3rd weekend of May), the fronts were smaller so that put the front on hold. AA doesn't even stock the USR1963 - they list the wrong part number for the ST fronts.

With that said, I called EBC directly as no one seems to stock these. A new shipment was arriving the last week of May from over the pond. I placed an order with http://www.ultrarev.com ($55.18 discount when added to cart + free shipping = $195.62 for the pair) vs. https://www.shopebcbrakes.com ($237 ish) and they're shipping them out this week. I hope to have them before next Thursday. [wrenchin]

FYI they make a REAR kit which is cheaper vs. buying rotors/pads separate, includes yellow-stuff pads + usr sports slotted rotors. Sadly, there is no kit for the front.

That is cheap! Thanks for the heads up! After I wear out the yellow-stuff, may give these a shot.

OEM springs with 205/45/16 RE-71Rs - don't mind the rusty look of the rotors. Rears are swapped already to EBCs. Still waiting on the 10.9inch front set.

The 1.2s look phenomenal in EVERY size on these cars! [thumb]

The bronze color is really sharp, and as much as I love my gloss black 17x8s, I sometimes wish I had ordered the bronze as well.

Thanks to [MENTION=129]PCA-1[/MENTION] - they were my track wheels for the PB, but now are my summers/track until the rubber wears out. I have gold 15x8 wheels that'll be wrapped later this summer I'll use for track.
