b4zz Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Looks good. Liking the changes you've made so far. Amazing the difference a set of wheels make:) Think you've done exactly what im going for in terms of exhaust. Out of interest did you need to modify the standard bumper for the tailpipe to fit correctly? I'm looking at a Jetex system but not keen on changing bumper's, yours looks great so you've given me hope it might work:P cheers fella and as for the exhaust where I had it done they had to cut the bumper a bit for it to stick out like the mk1 focus as the mk2.5 oem exhaust sits unde the bumper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke.grimbley Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Yeah that's my problem. I think most of the aftermarket exhausts are designed to fir the zetec s bumper so i may need to modify and was worried how it would turn out. Taking a bit of inspiration from yours though:) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking a bit of inspiration from yours though:)yea I have noticed that but as you can see my my pick where I had the exhaust done they did a good job on it doent look outa place. cheers hyrule I am very pleased with the wheels and the way they look on the car also I am like you now watching the kerbs lol and the lights have made such a difference to much better the stock ones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of the aftermarket exhausts are designed to fir the zetec s bumper so i may need to modify and was worried how it would turn out. Taking a bit of inspiration from yours though:) Better off taking it to a power flow or long life dealer and getting one custom made/fitted. Prob cost less than an off the shelf jobby too. That way they will make it fit exactly under your bumper without the need for cutting it etc. From my research most of the off the shelf ones for say a 1.6 focus are made to fit under the standard bumper not the zetec s bumper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b4zz Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 another small update decided to carbon wrap my rear boot surround before after I think the carbon look goes well with the avlon blue myself. next on the list might be to have the mirror caps carbon dipped so watch this space 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b4zz Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 my recent mod and so glad I went ahead with it. when my mirror caps got carbon dipped. standard dipped together standard before close up carbon dipped after on car close up I also fly eyed the indicators in the mirrors having the battery cover and front deflector cover dipped but having them done different also got a bit of engine bling so watch this space for pics when I have the covers back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b4zz Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 got my self a pair of crystal black side repeaters instead of the fly eyed look. fly eyed and crystal together fly eyed on car before crystal black after so glad that I found the crystal black repeaters as they blend in better with my dipped mirror covers then the fly eyed ones did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassen Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Nice set of mods there. Really like the carbon dipped side mirrors. Brings the black wheels on the car together with the rest. Suggestion: Maybe get the centre console around the radio done as well. Reckon it would look ace rather than the wrap :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b4zz Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 thanks for the nice reply hassen think I will leave the console with the wrap on as it is my daily driver so cant realy take the console apart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
