new pics of the ride - Focaljet

**jmotank** · 08-09-2007, 02:55 AM

i know, quite a few pics here. LOL. someone requested that i make a post in rigz, so here it is!

EDIT: couple more pics added

I need to get some night shots rockin the led's and some interior shots. i'll get around to it soon i'm sure. LOL. and the engine bay is much more stealthy now and black to go with the rest of the car. power wire has been covered in black loom, strut bar was sanded and painted wrinkle black, and i've got an FC TB and F2 intake waiting to be installed. i'll add pics of those later this week. also note: the crappy quality pics were taken with cell phone. don't do it justice at all.

never thought I'd really like a billet grill on a focus but that one looks great in black and on black.

Are you sure they wanted the car pics? I'm happy with the Hooter's pics!!

Sweet ride.

+1 for Hooters girls on a Focus!

I wish they didn't have to wear pantyhose! BTW - clean sedan - I like black sedans, but honestly, I'm not down with that grill. It looks like a real huge '01 ZX3 grill without the embedded signals.

EDIT: I think the grill would look fine if it were body colored.

have the billet grille w/ the ford emblem on it FTW. The car looks good. rep the mk1.5!

**v8FociDreams** · 08-09-2007, 10:17 PM

Nice looking sedan. Love the wheels! what size are those? where can you get them?

**jmotank** · 08-09-2007, 11:09 PM

the rims are actually the 16" factory ST rims. i sanded and painted them leaving a polished lip. painted the grill with the same paint. some people don't like the grill, but us 05^ folks have limited options. i love it. i think it smooths out the front end alot and cuts down on some of the lines up front. i'm going for an over all stealthy sleak look. no crazy body kits and such. a subtle lip kit in the near future tho. i have re named it "black out" cause everyone calls my car the blacked out focus.

right on hope your A/C is workin in ATL 103 today

Soon to move to raleigh - gonna be warm there too

**jmotank** · 08-10-2007, 12:49 AM

yeah, it works but i don't use it. LOL. i would rather sweat my balls off that lose all the power that the a/c sucks out of a 4 banger. LOL. i do use it every once in a while, but rarely. and yeah, the heat is rediculous!! my pool feels like bath water!! not refreshing in the least!

**j20000** · 08-10-2007, 12:49 AM

black out those headlights, and you're set.

**jmotank** · 08-10-2007, 12:58 AM

yup, that's what everone says. i actually have lamin-x sitting at my house that i plan to install tomorrow. if i don't like it, i'll bake them and crack em open for paint!!

**v8FociDreams** · 08-10-2007, 07:34 AM

**jmotank** · 08-10-2007, 07:57 AM

lol..... yeah, that's why i'm not in a rush to get rims, i love the way these look!!

**steedafocusgirl** · 08-10-2007, 08:00 AM
