Modern Fiesta - Retro Graphics. Any ideas?

[grizz]

So with Sally being set on buying a 2017-2019 Ford Fiesta as a daily, one of the colours that comes up for sale that she is not keen on, is white.

She has said no Black or Burgundy

Based on all the input here forum.retro-rides.org/thread/218606/25-liter-small-ford-engines I am pretty certain that it will be a 1.25 three door she settles for.

Now I have tried to convince her that White is not a bad choice.

I said we could do some simple graphics down the side and even over the top.

So please do share anything you have seen at shows, online or in the various games people play.

Some ideas.

I like the simplicity of this.

Imagine it in Ford Motorsport blue, and a bit of red detail on a white car.

And she is Sally R so an SR in stead of ST could work.





This is quite busy, and pretty certain to fail the “Understated Sally Test”

But another direction




As always, thanks for the input.

Where are always the WRC fiestas to use as inspiration.




We seem to flip between black and white ones I think I prefer the white though the black A line we had looked OK.

There will surely be english sticker/vinyl sites, too, but for inspiration You might want to look here:

My first thought, if its white, is tiger stripes


But its a bit overdone, and having looked at afew pic of different cars with the stripes, if it doesnt look quite right, it looks wrong. Mabie look through the ford back catalogue for ideas. Mk1 escorts, fiestas etc

When I decided to put stripes on the Cube, I thought I knew straight away what I wanted, but when I started looking it took me ages to make my mind up

Set of the fade out stripes as used in the early XR2 or possibly the Supersport?

Once again….

Simple, and just a subtle as it needs to be.

I remember these as fading out going downwards originally

I always loved the RS200 stripes.
