Your car looks even better in person than it does in pictures, Niko A) I want a test drive/ride, B) you need the WRC wing done in the paint style I told you about, and C) I LOVE Tribal's old eyelids on there. You know I always wanted those things to keep the memory alive, but they fit your car sooo well

yeah I agree! i ran out of money over summer, I had to buy a winter car. i ended up with a decent jeep wrangler.I'm going to garage this thing over winter.

My plans are:
New Euro black housing headlights.
Wrc Wing, North Viking(Painting Style Brians idea)
Engine build, Pistions rods arps, Shooting for 300whp.
FJ Emblem covers.

You need new wheels with a low offset...STAT!!!

And I like the kit, I just don't know about all the black accents...

I dunno... the old look seems to be better. Sorry. Maybe it's the wheels. Atleast get bigger tires.

Personally I think the old look looked better too. White wheels on red looks hot-hot-hot. Maybe its just the stance or the bumper, I dunno. Still looks good though.

Well the invader hood on the old one i think is **** because everyone has it. The side skirts are veilside lol and the rear is drift. the old pic makes it look better than it actually was. It was more street. I'm thinking about white 17"super t's in the future.

idk i've seen this bumper on cars before in person and i know for a fact that it never looks right in pictures however it looks excellent in person...

i'm not feelin it but i'll save actual judgements until i see it in person

i definitely am feeling you getting ST170 headlights however...

I love that kit and that paint job. Everything flows perfectly!

I think if you ditched the body side moldings and ditched the eyelids once you got the new headlights and added the 02+ ST170 grille with the paintable surround it would be pure SEX.

I think that after Niko gets the North Viking wing painted red on the sides and black in the middle, ST170s, and some 5mm spacers for the wheels, it's really gonna pop. Not to mention it's already boosted so it goes like stink too

I like it a lot.

I don't like the headlamps or the wheels. I love me some EAPs, but they don't look right on your car.

What he said. And is that black trim on the door?

New wheels, black headlamps, and that NV wing will be hawt.

Lets see some pics of the turbo setup, you have a remote setup IIRC. Car looks good but I'd say get some wheel spacers to move the wheels out a bit, at least make them flush with the fender flares. Other than that I like it, a lot.

Needs less wheel offset... (offset in the case of the fwd Focus is to the inside)


The EAPs are a 49; you need at least a 38 or a 35 with that wb kit... or a 40 with a spacer.

Nice paint, tho.
