Bonnet Vents, Quickshift, Climair Wind Deflectors, and the Ken Block Cars

The next modifications were done in late 2012. They were RS Bonnet Vents, Collins Quickshift Kit, Climair Wind Deflectors, and two small Ken Block Cars in the boot.

The bonnet vents were a DIY job, probably one of the most daring things I have done on the car, jigsawing holes into the bonnet is not for the faint hearted!

The Collins Quickshift Kit again was the first one to be fitted to an ST (except for the one test car) I went to fetch this from Collins Performance on the day of release after work and it was fitted within the hour!

Climair wind deflectors were put on as I liked the look of a few cars with them at RSCD earlier in the year.

The Ken Block cars are Matchbox cars official merchandise.
