Anyone have one they want to sell?

I have searched for weeks with no luck. I first tried CARid and they actually sent one meant for a truck or something, but with SVT Focus labels on it. I returned that one, and tried again with rockauto. They sent me some one that was close but wasn't right for any Focus, then they actually refused my return! I even sent them pictures showing that it could not even mount to my car, and they decided that it was my fault. Both of these and panels from a bunch of other retailers come from a manufacturer called "REplace", so watch out.

I also tried to find the OEM part at Tasca and a bunch of other online Ford dealers. They all seem to use the same ordering system and it lists the part, but a few days later I will always get a message that they don't have it.

If anyone has a used one or has had luck finding one please let me know.
 
All Ford dealers do get their parts from the same depot network, just like GM dealers get their parts from GM and Chrysler from Chrysler.

The SVT lip has been discontinued for some time now, used is about your only hope, that or going to a modded Mach 1 lip which is very expensive from Ford or you can find aftermarket versions of those.

I have a brand new one I bought in 2009 for $380. It's yours for the same price. It is still wrapped and includes the fog lights, horns, etc. Ford Performance part, not generic. The MSRP was like $600.

I had planned to rebuild a crashed Focus (that I still have) and I have a ton of parts. I've been unable to work on it since 2009. Engine has like 75k and everything :\
 
^That is a very generous offer! :eek: I hope you will get to work on it someday soon...

SVT5D, you won't find any deal better than that. The only alternative is to do what many of us have had to do, or chose to do, and that is find a wrecked SVT somewhere and buy the messed up cover, then pay to have it repaired and painted. Altogether, going that way usually costs more than if you had been able to buy a new one, unless you can do either the repair or the paint (or both) yourself.

That is a great price, but I don't need a bumper cover. If you would like to sell me just the valance maybe we can work something out?
 
Aha, it seems only Steve understood what you meant. The lips are almost impossible to find... like he said, get a Mach lip instead, they look good as long you mod them correctly for install.
