I finally have the exterior of the car just how I want it. I do still have the 18" Team Dynamic wheels for shows, but I really like these wheels. They took me 3 years to pick out for my old Focus and I think they look even better on this car. Anyways, here is the car, I just detailed it last night so it's absolutely spotless.
The Foglights are covered in blue LaminX, headlights are a blue coated bulb which is reflected in the prism
The tint is a mix of 20% black and 20% silver, which matches the liquid grey almost perfectly
After debating it for a few months, I'm keeping the doors. I'm a whore and they attract lots of attention
The trees are Vanilla and Coconut, try it
Here you can see just how much of a difference a little color can make to the car
The mighty Zetec... 65mmTB, SVTMAF, 4-1 header, 2.5" Magnaflow (no cat), Pulleys, cam gears, screamn' deamon coil and wires, SCT Xcal2 tuned for 91 octane. The shop in town that last tuned the car tells me it puts 155hp to the front tires. Roush turbo will bump that by about 100hp...
The car is lowered 2 inches, and has upgraded sway bars front and rear. It does not clear a Pepsi can and has almost no lean in the corners
The tails are the other major love it or hate it about the car. I love them but they do sway from the original style of the car.
I'm still debating painting the side and rear moldings. PIA to keep black but I like the contrast. SVT Focus brakes are in the works. The side skirts are RS replica skirts by ICC Tuning.
4 coats Yellow, 4 coats NXT, 1 coat spooge
The wheels are 17"x7.5" Hotwheels Redlines. They are flat black with a machined lip. I want to take them in and have the lip polished, as well as the black area near the spokes.
Grille is off an ST170 from Europe
The rear bumper is a standard Euro rear from 1999. Tires were under $90 each and are exceptional in wet conditions. treadwear is fantastic as well.
The bumper is an RS Collection front from europe with Hella Magic Module signals to match the rear tails. The wing is an RS wing from Europe
Finish it off with an ass shot
Comments welcome as always
. I like the 17s but I think the 18's look alot better on that car, the 17s seem to look too small, thats just my opinion tho and the car looks great either way.
