Had this car nearly 6 months now, though I'd put some photo's and details up, a car probably not to everyone's tastes and my mods aren't probably to everyone's taste, but meh, I like it:

Advert photo's:




Home after a clean (added some wind deflectors at that point):


Ford overlays and new domed number plates added:



Had the dash lights changed from red to green:


Added some carbon fibre bonnet vents:


Changed the standard wheels to the OZ Racing Superturismo GT M-Sport's I used to have on my ST with some brand new Goodyear Eagle F1A2's on:





Roof wrapped black, lowered on Eibach springs, Mongoose exhaust fitted, carbon bonnet lip fitted, back debadged and green RS overlays fit to remaining badges:









Still got a way to go, got a pile of stuff waiting to go on.

Hope you enjoyed that beer

Nice car OP. I think those mods suit the style and image of the car.

What else are you planning?

Cheers, Got some more exterior carbon waiting to go on. Got a rear anti-roll bar, CAIS, anti-lift kit, polybushes, samco coolant hoses, radiator, alloy header tank, billet anembo inlet manifold, mountune pump and injectors sitting there as well.

Also got a 2nd set of calipers which are away getting powdercoated, which will go back on with some braided lines.

Just need to buy an intercooler when I can afford it next.

Very nice car, not sure on the badges but it's your motor not mine smile

These have held value incredibly well.

Yeah... the badges! Sorry, but they're just the tackiest thing.

Car looks great though smile favourite colour and it's good to see some different wheels on there. Darker suits the bright green I think.

I like it on those OZ's. And the rest of the mods look nice too.

But those chav cannons on the back, Please, please find something a tad smaller!

I like it, just be careful you don't get a couple of migrants hiding in your exhaust pipes should you ever take it to mainland Europe smile

Nice!
Although personally I would have either resprayed the original wheels darker, or gone for a completely different style of wheel.

They're just too similar IMO.

And yeah the exhaust.... Once it's dirty it should blend in more!!!

The mark 2 Focus RS is a guilty 'wish' for me. I got a lot of stick for wanting a green one when then came out, from my company (boring) car driving colleagues: MB, BMW, Audi diseasals.

I like the mods you've made. The wheels you bought, as someone else already posted, are very similar to the originals.

Like the interior / dash lights - is that an easy mod or is it dashboard out and change each led type of thing?

Each switch etc. has to come out, split open and each LED has to be changed.

Wheels I already had from my ST, so would be rude not to. They also offer the perfect fit, and don't require any spacers to fill out the arches.
