I always thought the RS' had the same brakes as the ST, obviously not.

Hi Gary, good thanks mate!

Well, i really like the RS500 front calipers & you cant just buy the plates with the RS logo on their own from Fords, only come complete with the caliper, so you can imagine how much that would cost!!

Decided to knock up my own! Posted it up on the Focus RS owners club website & being swamped with requests to make them for others!

I think it could become a common mod!! spin

Of course, if you wanted to be different, you could always go for UG calipers?!
