Alright, the car arrived at my dealership today for mechanical work. I was so excited to learn it was coming, and then to see it for the first time since it was put together, it was awesome!
Since I've been promising for so long, here are the pics. There are still a few things to do, but the bodyshop is essentially done with my car. :D
Bodyshop thought it would be funny to put another Ford emblem in the grill, so I'm getting them to take that off once they take it back for the final detailing. :lol:

They decided to make custom gaskets for me, which would've been fine if they weren't an inch thick. I'm going to try and get them to make them a little more OEM:

4 months in the making, and still more work to do, yay!

The hood is popped in those pictures, otherwise it fits as best as they can make it fit, which is pretty close to perfect! :)
Thanks for all the comments everyone. :)

i was gonna ask if the hood was popped, becuase thats a huge gap between the grille and hood front.
But that is seriously one nice phacking car. If i were to do an 05, it would look exactly like that, but i would have opt for the wide instead of the narrow, but thats just me.
What mechanical work is getting done?? Keep up the good work!
I wish my grass was Emo, so it would cut itself...

The car is trying to idle around 4000 - 5000 RPM still since the accident. That's lower than the 6000 RPM it shot up to upon impact. :lol:
I have a Focus-central 65mm throttle body, Roush short shfiter & knob, Ford Racing front & rear sway bars, and SVT pedal set waiting for install once I get it into my garage. :)

looks good 05 black ZX5, although I don't personally car for the clear american corners in the signel spaces, why did you not use the euro ones ?
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

I was told the euro turn signal covers wouldn't work, so I ended up with these ones. I would've prefered the euro clears.
