Focus mk2.5 ST front lower grille on standard bumper

Featured Replies

Hi all,

As per title does anyone know the ford part no of the genuine OEM ST honeycomb front lower grille and also whether it fits the standard bumper on zetec titanium etc, to match with and like the upper ST grille does?

Had a bit of a search about but struggling to find out hoping someone here is likely in the know.



It doesn't fit non-sports bumpers.  Corners are rounded on those and pointed on the ST grill.  

You can buy an aftermarket honeycomb grill though - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOCUS-MK2-5-BLACK-RS-STYLE-SPORT-HONEYCOMB-MESH-FRONT-GRILLES-LEFT-RIGHT-CENTRE/291271023959?fits=Model%3AFocus|Plat_Gen%3AMK+II&hash=item43d11b1d57:g:iRUAAOSwpvZaCyQ0

Ok thanks. The model I have is a focus sport but I take it you mean only fits ST bumpers. As although mine is a focus sport it's just the standard bumper.

Only concern with that kit is that it's gloss black unlike the standard ST upper grille I already have on order. Haven't collected it yet so might have to see if dealer will refund it and look at that kit for the matching upper and lower. Thanks.

Bought mine from underground parts on eBay a couple of year's ago. My car is a Zetec S. Older photo top, newer photo bottom.

That looks great. Gloss black really goes with the red. Mine is white 2011 sport which essentially sits between zetec and titanium and was a run out model. I've seen those gloss black ones and seems to be the best option. Just means I'll need to buy the gloss black upper grille from them as well. Had already got oem ford upper ST grille but it's not gloss black finish like that. I think gloss black will go well with the white too at least 👍.

Definitely go for it Paul, they'll look great on a white car I'm sure.

Like I said I've had mine for around 3 years now, my missus bought them for me as a Christmas present I think they were around £110.

Just done a quick search on eBay

I used to have a Focus Sport. I fitted the Zetec S grill on it as it was so much nicer than the standard. However, I really like Wilto's conversion.

Had the bonnet lock problem and replaced bonnet lock kit and grille today after breaking old grille to get in and break old lock (didn't fancy trying to get hand up from underneath looked bit tight for my arm). Mostly just a family car now but thought as replacing grille anyway to fit ST one, hadn't realised when buying that lower ST one at later date wouldn't fit. Fitted upper one anyway as needed a grille for now either way, and do like it better than the old one but unfortunately doesn't really go that well with lower one I feel, needing new number plate as is getting grubby, could either just replace plate to existing grille and live with it, or fit the zetec s lower one as it looks better than standard I feel, or replace all with gloss black kit. Good shout maybe start dropping hints to the missus about b'day re gloss black kit 😉.

Needs a good clean etc but took quick pic of how it is now. At least I can get the bonnet open again now!
