That doesnt look too bad to be honest... it just needs to be dropped about another 2" though to fill the arches a bit better.

Well done! i think you the first to put a full front bar and back bar on any the eurofords (focus or fiesta anyway...)
How much was the kit.. and how much for painting and fitting?

I agree, looks good but would look great if you dropped it an inch or two... Tinting those windows would also make it look a heap better!!

I reckon you need to get a set of personalised plates to match the blue of the car, and lose the yellow standard plates. It will really set the car off, as I find the yellow plates really spoil the effect

get some of the diamond mesh from AWC, i think it would tie in with the front grill much much better- on the front bar that is, and the numberplates too :P otherwise i reckon it looks good.

Good job almohac, car is looking very nice! Only thing i could suggest is probably putting the original taillights bak on, i dont really think the clear lights suit the blue color, but other wise keep up the great work man.

All your comments on what i should do are on the list already. Its the money thats slowing me down.
Kit cost me $600 painting and fitting cost $850. Im so happy with the price of the whole thing i nearly could cry, i really feel i got it for very cheap. Lowering is definatly on the cards, i dont want to go to low as im a very avid snowboarder so i need to fit chains, thinking about going fully adjustable. All a bit expensive at the moment. Im looking at getting that midnight tint from tint-a-car. But yet again its all a bit too pricey. Im going to get some euro plates to get rid of the yellow "dogs balls" as i call them. And as for the lights, i like em, i know alot of people think "OH GOD CRHOME". Im thinking about getting some tint spray onto the tail lights and the rear foggies. Then as all of us would LOVE to do but cant afford the install of the insurance after it. A turbo will be fitted i just need the $7000 to get it done, its all reserached, will run 4-5psi of boost, should be sweet. |

The front bar looks great but i am not a fan of the rear. it looks like ones that dickheads put on the their lancer coups. but thats my opinion what does it matter. Taste is in the hand of the beer holder. :

Dont know if anyone would be interested, but i still have the old body kit off my car, including the extra skirting you could get from ford (they called it a body kit and charged over $1000 for it from the factory).
So if anyone wants it just shoot me a PM |
