My Humble ZX3 - Focaljet

**Random Select** · 02-01-2006, 10:17 PM

I've been lurking for a while now. Some may know me some may not. I ain't a trouble maker nor a binary/post whoring person anymore. That was the past - this is now. I'm just chilling now and just viewing the Focus scene from the outisde looking in. It's good to see the scene is alive and well.

Well here is my contribution to the current scene. Nothing much have changed though since the last time. Only a rear makeover is in the plans and a new set of wheels. Other then that, I plan to do some basic fixing up on this car. Then this will become my daily driver once again. I may end up getting rid of this car though as I do have another money-wasting project in mind.

Here are current pics of my car that just got its first wash in like a month or so due to constant rain.

This car will be featured on a local sport compact/import car website along with other European cars that were pimping the Rieger look. This Focus has the Rieger R-Rx kit. I will not post the URL of the site out of respect to this site and its moderators, but all I can say is that I will represent Focaljet in a positive way.

I hope you folks will like what you see. Otherwise compliments and criticism is always accepted.

hey man nice ride... what body kit is that?

**OmniFocus** · 02-01-2006, 10:22 PM

I have always loved those wheels... some of the OEM's best.

I'd recommend glossy side and B-pillar trim. That'd move it even more upscale.

Car looks great.

**blkzx3610** · 02-01-2006, 10:23 PM

i like it! i think if you painted the trim, it would look a thousand times better.

*edit* omnifocus beat me to the comment

**Giveen** · 02-01-2006, 10:30 PM

looks great

**focuspl99** · 02-01-2006, 10:32 PM

looking great..... very smooth euro look

get all your plastics painted glossy black though and throw some tint on those windows

**Dukman** · 02-01-2006, 10:39 PM

Very nice indeed.

Where can one find those wheels?

**2focusd** · 02-01-2006, 11:23 PM

Ah the Reiger kit always looks so mean and makes me wanna go waste all my savings to go buy it

If it was my car, I'd niteshade the tail lights so that they flow better with the front, get a decent tint (depending on what's legal in your state) all the way around, do the glossy treatment to the B-pillars and door mouldings, oh, and get a nice little intercooler to fill in some of that space in that front bumper

Very nice! Great choice on your body kit pieces! I second the motion on the glossy b-pillar trim and tint. But overall, the car looks great!

**ZeTeC808** · 02-02-2006, 01:06 AM

**MrPotatoes** · 02-02-2006, 01:19 AM

**STLfocus** · 02-02-2006, 08:04 AM

euro tails!!! besides painting the trim, thats all you need.

**Silfox** · 02-02-2006, 08:35 AM

I just realized you were stateside from your plate. So you acualy imported those wheels over? I found them for $157 a piece, did you get a better deal?

**knutsjos** · 02-02-2006, 08:47 AM

looks good.

**Honda Hunter** · 02-02-2006, 09:51 AM

Car looks amazing, but PLEASE put some EDM tails on there.

**Random_Guy** · 02-02-2006, 10:27 AM

How random is this? Two random people.

**o2_designs** · 02-02-2006, 12:58 PM

Beatiful Car!!
It needs body painted side moldings, SVT style mirrors, and glossy B-Pillars.
The rims would look great black. But I would'nt do it.LOL

**REVSWIN** · 02-02-2006, 01:17 PM

Nice lookin' ride!

**mievil** · 02-02-2006, 01:30 PM

Saw in your post that you were looking at getting some new wheels. Please, keep me in mind if/when you go to get rid of them. I've been waiting on getting any wheels at all just to get those. I love the MP3s. So if you are planning on getting rid of them, let me know.

Awesome car. like everyone else, I would say to get some black moldings, and it'd be perfect.

**liltang21** · 02-02-2006, 06:44 PM

man looks so warm there...car looks great

**Zoomer69** · 02-02-2006, 07:05 PM

Your car is pure sex with the Ford rims on there!

**sleeping_focus** · 02-02-2006, 08:10 PM

what kind of wheels are those? size?

**Pak** · 02-02-2006, 08:31 PM

Car looks awesome!! I'm digging the Reiger kit too, except the front bumper. But that rear, wow, now that is sexy!
