Yeah, I bought it from Concept Fraud, I mean ford back in Nov. of 03.
I was going into parts source for parts with my dad, sister, brother-in-law. Mainly to get some much needed parts for the '88 Jeep my brother-in-law bought 2 weeks ago.
The Damage was done when I was giving my sister a lesson in Driving a 5 speed, she didn't back out of the drive way far enough, and well I told her to back up 3 feet or pull forward and try again. Well she didn't listen to me and she hit the snow / ice pile at the end of the drive way at full bore. She send the front air dam, up and into the bumper and it broke apart all the seals and well forced it to be tucked into the bottom of the bumper.
So yeah I had to cut the air dam off, and undo the last 4 screws holding it on pull it out from being tucked into the inner fender and bumper on the passenger's side. When it was finally off, I had to push the bumper down the fix the look of being buckled, Debbie tore the passenger side of the bumper in 5 areas leaving a huge crack and hanging part of the bumper on the passenger side. Plus braking the side marker light bulb, how I don't know, but the wiring it okay, and so is the light itself.
Paolo, we did meet before during the summer at Dan's BBQ, I was helping you with my brother-in-law installing those Focus RS headlights on that blue SVT ZX5, I didn't stay long there though, I had to leave round 5 pm to get my sister from work. Question are you still thinking of selling your Euro OEm Bumper ? Because I'm kinda in the market for a new bumper now lol...... :lol:

I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.
