moy24 Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 To be honest I've heard bad reviews about that specific group, A fellow member purchased and had to throw in bin due to poor build quality and I'll fitment, To be honest mate the amount of work you have done so far you would be best go to ford for some skirts 240gbp I think, i had a search on the internet and di find bad review so i wont be going there thanks for the advice i think il wait till something comes up unless i get unpatient il go to ford. I seen a full ST kit on ebay the other day in black I think...was advertised as 08-11 kit, but was clearly the pre-facelift bumpers from the pics. The skirts inlcuded were for a 5 door, so I'll try find the link and maybe you could contact them to see if they'll split and sell the skirts seperate. I had a look at that but they wont split it they wana sell the whole lot but thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gforce Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Bummer about the skirts, 5 door ones seem pretty rare. Think Charlie has been keepin an eye out for quite a while too. Whoever did the pre-facelift ST conversion on your car mustn't have changed the fogs then mate as they should be the same. Pre-facelift ST and all models of facelift use the fogs with a mounting bracket/hole in each of the 4 corners. All non ST pre-facelift models, ie your Titanium, use the other type, with only one bracket coming from the middle at one side...if you get me! Can post links to clarify if need be. Do you need a pair or just one? I think I have a spare one in the shed but it has a tiny bit of corrosion inside it, fine apart from that.

gforce Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Here's an example of the standard non-ST pre-facelift fogs that would have been on your Titanium originally... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Original-Ford-Focus-MKII-Frond-Fog-Light-LH-Passenger-Side-Used-/251234180951?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a7eb95f57 Here's an example of the ST type one mate. This was used across the board on the Mk2.5 facelifts. Was also used on other models and even other makes (Renault, Peugeot, Volvo I think...could expand your search if you need to go looking for a bargain!). http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-FOCUS-RS-MK-2-FRONT-FOG-LIGHT-2009-2012-LEFT-OR-RIGHT-HAND-/261175378308?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3ccf440184 If you're saying you already have the right type then I'm not sure why it wouldn't fit as I'm only familiar with the pre-facelift ST bumper.

Brigante Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yup I've been lookin for a set of 5 door skirts for a fair few months now with no avail. I don't fancy the work of trimming a set of 3 doors down. Theres been a primed only single 5 door skirt on eBay for many months noe but is no good to me as I won't be able to source the other one. Need the pair. Also as I've mentioned a few times my poor old car will of done a 100k in the next few days so I dont think its worth spending loads of money on buying new parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gforce Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Have you a pic of the bumper bracket where you're trying to fit it by any chance? As I said, I'm not familiar at all with the facelift ST so a pic might help us work it out. The bulb holder isn't in upside down and fouling it by any chance?

gforce Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I was gonna suggest givin Focuschick a shout as she recently fitted a facelift ST bumper, but she doesn't seem to have fitted the fogs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highwaymanuk Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I'm sure Liam said there is a metal bracket which fits to bumper and the fog light fits to that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam-20 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Hey not had full read of thread but you should have a plastic bracket that slides onto the back of the bumper then the fog lights screw to that. Any questions just get back to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gforce Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 This is strange... Is there any way that the 'bracket' the guys mention above would still be attached to his fogs? Hence why his won't fit pre-facelift and yours won't fit facelift, even though they're supposed to be the same units! Any chance you can just get his off him? Pity you didn't find out sooner and you could have just swapped but if he's went and spent on new ones already it mightn't be an option. Might still get them cheap though.
