What are the alloys you've got mate??

Think their RS replicas, because they're 18" not 19" as on the RS, but they do have the  little RS badges on them though. They were on the car when I bought it.

I've painted my rear drums with hammerite "smooth finish silver" and they look alot cleaner;

Also done the front spacer section of the discs,

I've got plans to do my Drums and calipers in black.

Never gave the spacer on the disc any thoughts before.

Another great idea Lenny 👍🏼

EBC Green pads and some cross drill/grooved discs are the best in my opinion and available on the ebc website, Perhaps also condider a set of goodridge braided brake lines which also enhance braking performance, there's different type of kit for rear drum brakes or rear discs generally there made to order and model specific but we'll worth it.

Check eBay for a K&N57s if your model of engine can take that type of filter; it offers the best gains

The only ones for my model are  57-0595 and teh  57S-4000

The 57S-4000 is the best induction filter upgrade on the market today 👍 I spent 235GBP on mine 😢 good to see them come down in price😣 Guide to Induction Filter Upgrade in Your Ford Click Here

Check eBay for a used K&N57s plastic filter housing and you can still purchase the filter number: E-9289 brand new for around 70GBP Brand new resulting in the exact same results for less.

IMG_20150801_110353_zps6xpm820j.jpg

The large K&N E-9289 filter from K&N won't fit the standard induction lid, it needs to be the aftermarket lid that is the K&N57s housing.

Ran into several issues this weekend and only managed to get a few things fitted found out that the wiring loom i purchased off eBay with lights and mirror is actually for a mondeo not a focus the next one was that i cant for the life of me find a wiring diagram of a focus 2007 ignition so i know which wire is the 12v for the push button start.

Now i was wondering if i could chop the wires from the mondeo loom and fit them into the focus loom? or is that just a no no.
