[meford4u]

It would look better with the snow deleted.

Nice.

[SVT ZX3]

Are those your euro sedan tail lights? I don't see any difference between those and the NA ones. Please edumecate an uninformed hatch owner....

P.S. The ST170's are sweeeet.

[hardk0re]

I think it needs a lip...the front being so high and the skirts being so low make it look like something is missing...

Other than that, looks sweeet.

[scoobasteve]

Lookin good!


get a rieger or JMS lip to finish it off!

[FocusGuy7476]

looks really good. like scooba said a front lip would really make it look excellent.

[SVT ZX3]

I think he said in another thread he just took his front lip off for winter....

LOL, I see that now that I'm at home, colour is so shitty on my monitor at work I couldn't even distinguish between the red and orange....

[NOS2Go4Me]

LOL, you need to not get a ticket with the missing front Ontario plate.

Not bad, not bad.

[guilty]

Looking good, are you going with the standard 2002+ or the ST170 foglights? But yeah it does look funny with no lip since the sideskirts hang down so low. Personally I think the car would look better without the Xenon kit, I dont think it really suites the euro theme you're going with here.

Where is the "Sport" badge from? Please dont say it's one of those generic badges you get at CT/Walmart.. :ph34r:

[Focus man. Focus.]

Very Clean. I have a couple questions. What year/model Focus is the hood lock off? I know its from Europe, maybe even England? I have family in England and my Cousin is always messing around with his Focus and maybe he can find me one of those.

So if possible can you please post the years and model focus that is from?

I hope I am not asking to much. Thanks in advance.

Kevin.

Don't worry NOSGo4Me, I only take the front plate off when I take photos of the car, or I'm at car meets, or I'm showing off the car, but it's never on the car when I'm driving it.

I'm going with the Standard 2002 Facelift fogs, mainly because the ST170's are the same as the 2005 American Focus, and I really don't like how they look. The ST170 Foglights are commonly know as Bullet Spot lights in the UK.

An no it's not a Wal-Mart Badge at all, it's from the Sport model TDCI Focus in Europe, I saw it on E-bay.co.uk for $8.00 Canadian and I bought it, as the guy selling it had a Buy it now on the sale of the badge, I saved myself 9 days as it was just listed when I saw it. LOL I just got it yesterday and put it on after I washed the car.

I'm going to add the " Zetec " badges to the front doors, and the Zetec " 2.0 " to the rear just infront of the Sport badge so it will read " 2.0 Sport "

The Focus hood lock is on all focus'es from 1998 ~ 2006+ its standard equipment on the International focus, it was one of the things ford cheaped out on when they brought the focus here.

The hood lock and gas door lock are the same key usually and if you buy them one at a time like I am you might end up with two keys one for each lock, but they come with the extra parts to do a change over if you want too as I found out when I went thru the package.

You can order them from either Sasha, or Mitch as they carry them, I ordered the one without the alarm as north american cars have no hood alarms unless they are after market. it's a little tricky to install and I'd recommend adding one washer to the tip of the locking part just so nothing can get into the other area.

Oh and I found out it's a theift deturant and can help aid you in getting a reduced insurance rate for having a hood lock on your car as it can be concidered an anti-theift device. :D

Mitch's Site:ZX3 Tunning.com if you need something all you have to do is PM him and ask. Or just ask him in the forms as he has his own section. He's also more or less Local to us as he's company is based out of Vancouver, and the shipping is far less then Sasha as there is no dutie to pay.

Sasha's site:European-Parts.net Sasha has more anything on the focus related to the Euro speck Focus and a few other fords, Keep in mind when ordering thru Sasha it's coming from Germany and there will be duties and higher shipping rates.

I more or less did hood lock mod myself, but keep in mind you should get a european upper grille to replace your domestic upper grille as you require the Ford Badge to swing open to open the hood. If your local to me I could help you do this mod.
