Random question - how easily does that badge come off? Is it a small gel badge or what? Is there an indent where it sits? Minor I know but just curious.

oooo whenever I decide to order a front splitter, I might have to add that! It looks good

How difficult is it to remove the original diffuser?

Is this a body shop job to have it done properly?

I have a maxton front splitter that I haven’t installed. There seems to be an indent where the badge is and I really don’t want to leave the badge on there.

You could just Bondo and rattle can it…wouldn’t be hard, and would be plenty nice enough looking for a splitter….

I thought it’s connected to the bumper ??

are we sure this will fit the US spec, i have been wanting one for years and this thread (Maxton diffuser install | Fiesta ST Forum ) we were sure it did not. Is this different than that one?

I could not be happier, thanks Ron

How do you take off the old valance? My old exhaust tip melted my valance and might pick this up

 

[joesiris]

these install over the old valance; I believe if you took your old one off there wouldn't be anything for the new one to attach too. my old valance (stone guard) is also damaged and is the reason i want one. But i imagine as long as the old one isn't to mishappen you'd be fine. If you still need to remove the stone guard, then they are riveted to the (honeycomb) part of the bumper and those would need to be drilled out.

the first part of this video shows this...only they take off both parts of that valance, just need to drill out the 2 rivets on each side and the clips in the middle

no, easy install

Thanks Ron. Getting smogged first!

Has anyone installed this yet? I got mine the other day and there are zero instructions provided or on Maxton's site. It came with self tappers but I would assume that it would need 3M or something else to properly install. Any recommendations or experience would be appreciated.

Is this kit compatible with the rear splitters that Maxton sell in their UK website? https://maxtondesign.com/product-eng-9916-Rear-Side-Splitters-Ford-Fiesta-7-ST-Facelift.html

Just bought this and haven’t got to the fitting aspect yet as I haven’t had the time.

I’m also extremely lost with the install as there is not one clear instruction on installing the US based version.

Can anyone give me a rundown of how to install this since I probably wouldn’t have bought it with the little instructions available.
