1stly, i wouldn't have let the tools from tuner transformation even touch my car.

Barring that, it would go with the powerworks blower, wingswest kit, minus the whale tail, be sporting the same SHM suspension, but wearing beautiful OZ chrono evolutions, and willwood brakes.

From there, life would be dandy with some unstolen ICE..

Ok, here's the jist. Adam has taken enough kicking in the teeth and teasing about the niteshade. i am the worst offender and have apologized for being overzealous to him.

I am asking that we back off on the teasing with the niteshade and let bygones be bygones. It's getting a little old anyway.

Besides, we have a new guy/old guy with new name to harass that thinks one of our oldest and most upstanding member is a liar! Let's get 'em boys!
TEAM PITA Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.

If I could start over I would have gotten the stereo set-up I wanted instead of being talked in to getting a different set-up. I also would have asked more questions about different body shops, to see which one has the better reputation, before dropping off my car to get the kit painted/installed. I also would have use my contacts, people who offered to help me out and suggested places to go, more.
Maybe in a couple more years I will have another stock Focus to play around with.

Instead of spending all of this money on my ZX3, I should have sold it and bought bluetoy's already modded SVT. Then I would have had a car that is 2 years newer with the horsepower advantage of the SVT for not much more than I spent already. Bluetoy's decition to sell was six months too late for me, at least I have his headlights now.
