Adam Barnett Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Basically, got quite a few plans for my little motor so thought i'd start a thread and let you all see it progress! Car started as a bog standard 2004, silver ST170, 80,000 miles and i am the 3rd owner from new! All that i have done so far is lowered it on coilovers and had BBS RS wheels fitted! As it was... Got some new wheels and coilovers on! Thats all that's happened so far, but on the cards are; -Slight more lowering to remove the arch gap -FlyEye headlights and rear fogs -Vinyl wrapped roof Anyone got anysuggestions as to what colour to do the roof? Thinking of either gloss black or matt grey (any photoshops would be wicked ;) ) So yeh, watch this space! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Barnett Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 What are people views on fly eye? I done one but wasn't impressed with how it looked 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Barnett Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Just thought I'd share a few more pictures... Fitted fly eye to my rear fogs, and soon to be front and rear lights too! Oh and also put on my Heko wind deflectors which look pretty tidy too :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Barnett Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 Unsure if I should do this with vinyl to the front splitter, as I hate it black... And I don't have a piece of vinyl long enough to go the whole way haha (if done properly it will be near and prefect) Opinions? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Barnett Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 All tucked up for a few days while I'm in NYC Also, opinions on these rims? Want a change! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiftfocus69 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Adam . NOOoooooooo you can`t change your alloys it`s the best thing about your ST ,absolutely love them. you see to many 5 spoke wheels on focus`s not to many BBS though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Agreed, stick with the BBS. 5 spoke wheels look lost. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turvey Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I may be wrong but aren't the wheels he wants an opinion on 6 spokes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 True :d but 5 or 7 spoke look too skinny. They show too much hub/drum/disc and jave the appearance of ceiling fans about them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Barnett Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Does anybody have any idea what size the interior bulb is in the st170, or the mk1.5 focus... I've got the 501 LEDs for the side two, but the main middle one is a longer bulb... Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 It's a festoon type, it's either a 38mm or 42mm. The contacts do bend to accomodate different sizes so not too important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty92 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Adam, I love those BBS wheels. I want to do the same thing to my ST170. Don't worry, I'm in Australia, so you wont be seeing a copy of your car any time soon. What size are the wheels and tires?, and are there any warnings before purchasing the wheels, like space restrictions etc. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
