clear to see this uber-JDM style was indeed going to
work perfectly on this car too.
Once the shut lines and panel gaps were tweaked to
perfection and the kit was looking fresh-to-death when
sprayed up in a body-matching white hue, Kampol
could next be found rolling his pride and joy around
the corner to The Wrap Icon, who was waiting to get its
talented hands on the car.
Soon sporting this eye-catching, black-to-white, race-

Fiesta project which was being taken much further than
most would ever dream of.

the right wheels to take pride of place under the
incredibly capacious arches. A self-confessed wheel
connoisseur, Kampol wasn’t going to accept anything
less than perfection here, eventually opting for some

stripped of all its creature comforts and applied with
a heavily-gusseted roll cage, as well as checker-plate
footrest plates, from the guys at Mard Body.
With some Bride recliners, a JDM steering wheel
and even that rally-style window netting also making
an appearance, this is one cockpit that you can
be certain even Ken Block would feel comfortable
spending some time in.Offering around 111bhp from the word go, Kampol’s

scene, it goes without saying that this is one car that’s
successfully gone down a storm for all the right reasons.HOT RIDE
