This should be cool, which spoiler are you looking for? If I were you I'd try to get the spoiler off a GFX package Focus. I think it would suit this build really well. Not sure about how the second gen rear bumper fit first gens but maybe that's an idea too.

Also FWIW Eibach makes some awesome suspension kits at an awesome price. And if you're ever on FocalJet I'm there lurking under the same screen name.

Actually the rear are the same minus the truck and the taillights but they are interchangable. This was brought up when I first talked about making a rear SVT bumper. Several FF members told me to collect the trunk, tail lights and rear bumper from the SAP (sport appearance pakage) it would be the same as SVT for the hatch backs they said all I need to change in the rear defuser out to a SVT. Check out this one I really dig this look. This is the look I'm going for minus the color, these are even the wheels I'm getting exept in black. I want this stance too.

Those look like rims off the 08+ Focuses, I like them too. That's a pretty nice looking little compact. With yours I would look for a set of the dark housing headlamps to replace your chrome ones, there was a silver wagon in the shop with them and they looked killer.

Yep already on that too if the damn owner will message me back. $100 shipped Depo black housing svt headlights, with halogen bulbs.




Trying to get a SVT grill too but this last one sold before I could get it. He has a set of the same lights for 120 shipped got a hold of him last night but they are not in as good shape.

Thanks man looks like the way money is flowing right now looks are going to get done before performance. I just wish I had better luck with getting a hold of FF members they have all good SVT stuff. It's been crash and burn more times on that site than I ever have anywere on the net. They don't answer tech questions, if they do it's something stupid to make fun.

That's why I like FocalJet, they kind of remind me of a Focus version of TRS.

I got one similar to that without the Ford logo... Makes me laugh every time when I forget it's there. :headbang:

Soo due to a extremly shady member on FF I backed out of the sale on the SVT housings. I found out through PMs from another member I wasn't the only one. They gave me a site URL to purchase brand new SVT housings. So without further ado.

FedEx showed up today and brought me some gifts.



I also orderd a set of H4 7000k bulbs to replace the factory ones. 9000k to come later.

Heres the candy!!




I was going to wait till this weekend to get them installed But.... as it is begining to get cold it's also suppose to snow up to 6". So I'm going to get up tomarrow morning and get them in. I'll post up more pics tomarrow.
