SmithyJ Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 OK I'm thinking about a very slight drop on the springs (say 20 - 30mm and a silver code one the calipers. Everything matt panther black. St spoiler. Progressive tints, zetec Dark headlights ams maybe something on the front bumper skirt. Would love to see a render of my (sensible) ideas Sent from my C6603 using Ford OC mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I don't do Photoshop but drawing the picture is the easiest thing :) figured id give some advice on your chosen list of mods instead: Eibach lowering springs drop it 35mm and are also available through ford see fordpartsuk.com Don't forget to purchase adjustable rear camber bolts and have the laser alignment done after lowering. 35% tint on rear windows and 10% front doors in a nice contrast, ST front bumper would give it a more aggressive appearance aswel as lower, however if not low enough TripleRcomposites manufacture a gloss black lip designed to fit the ST bumper, There's also a list of modification guides here: Guide To Activating Single & Multi Door Unlock on yor Ford Click Here Guide To Spraying Rear View Mirror Click Here The Ultamate Reverse Bulb Click Here Guide to Fitting Custom Built Climate Controls on Focus Click Here Guide to Converting Rear Fog Light To Clear Click Here Custom Lazer Cut Interior Parts For Your Ford Click Here Guide to Fitting New Ford Mist Type Jets on all Models Click Here Guide to Fitting additional Boot Light Click Here The Ultimate Rear Seat Protection Click Here Guide To Fitting ST Gauge Pod To Focus Dash Click Here Guide To Fitting Focus Led badge Light Click Here Guide To Fitting Second Reverse Light Ford Focus Mk2.5 Click Here Guide to Fitting Auto Dimmer Unit to Gauges or DRL's Click Here Guide to Fitting additional 12v Socket in Boot of Focus Click Here Guide to Fitting Footwell Lighting In Your Ford Click Here Guide to Induction Filter Upgrade in Your Ford Click Here Guide to Fitting Custom Bonnet Dampers Focus Mk2 & Mk2.5 Click Here Guide to wiper Blade Change Focus Mk2 Mk2.5 Click Here Guide to fitting Ford puddle lights Focus 05-12 Click Here Guide to Fitting Genuine focus RS LED tail lights Mk2.5 Click Here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmithyJ Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Lenny I have actually read most of your projects mate! U certainly love da foci Sent from my C6603 using Ford OC mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianb Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I often agree with Lenny, apart from the 10% front tints... I know it's very subtle, but I believe it's also technically illegal - It'd be a shame to get ticketed or forced to remove it at the roadside.. etc... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmithyJ Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 I know about front side window tints being dodge. But rear darker and then rear quarter darker still that's not dodge. Thought it might look nice Sent from my C6603 using Ford OC mobile app 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think front tints look ok, I just think it'd be a shame to pay good £ only to be told to scrape it off on the roadside... plus it will invalidate insurance.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassen Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Nice list of planned mods. If I may suggest along with the lowering springs to get a set of Bilstein dampers if the current ones are on the way out. They come in a pack, Eibach Bilstein B12 for the Focus. I am planning to get them myself sometime next year, fingers crossed :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Colour coding wing mirror surrounds aswell as colour coded stock rear spoiler also looks good, Here's some pictures of a mk2 i saw before looked tidy ST front bumper, colour coded fog surrounds and TripleRcomposites front splitter, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmithyJ Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 So anyway. Is this a photo shop thread or not? Sent from my C6603 using Ford OC mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So anyway. Is this a photo shop thread or not? Sent from my C6603 using Ford OC mobile app To be fair, people have been adding in ideas... Lenny has shown you ideas visually to give you hints. You've mentioned front bumper and dark headlights to be photoshopped but you've only shown a side profile picture of your car... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
