This forum is really taking off, so I wanted to add my build thread here too!

I was super excited when Ford announced the Fiesta ST would be coming to the US (finally!), so I placed a custom order at the end of October for a white FiST with Recaros and navigation. Like a lot of the guys here I waited...and waited...and waited. Towards the beginning of January, we found out our FiST SEMA build with Ford, Tanner Foust, and the Pat Tillman foundation would be leaving us to do some PR, so we started working to find something in stock locally. After a bit of searching, we found one that was fully loaded. I didn't want the sunroof initially, but now that I have it, I realize it will be great for nice days, an easy way to make sure my mountain bike is still connected to the roof, or a perfect place for a GoPro suction cup mount.

I'm hoarding all of the wheels in the shop, ha! Right now I'm running the HLT4 on the stock tires; a bit quieter for daily driving.

haha I love the look of the OZs...the red center caps go very well with the stripes and the silver goes well with the bike rack.

Great build thread Ian and thanks for sharing it here too. Have you installed the spoiler extensions and front splitter? Would love to see some updated pictures.

I have! But the car needs a bath. I'll be washing it tomorrow morning for our monthly First Thursday event so I'll grab some updated pictures then.

I like those OZ Racing Alleggerita HLT wheels. I'm looking for 7.5x17" ET45. Where can I get a set????? Tirerack.com says they don't fit the FiST?

I too love the looks of OZ Racing wheels. By the way which dealer did you get yours from?

My OZ wheels are 17x7, so I can't confirm fitment of any other size, sorry :/

I got them from TireRack, only place you can get them from!

Did you take off your spoiler extensions? I don't see them on. And I can't quite see the splitter either, unless I'm missing that also.

I have to say, I think those wheels look better than the TDR's. TDR's always felt generic to me.
