I love that color. Its kinda like volkswagens futura yellow. My advise would be to lower it a lil more to eliminate all the fender gap. Oh and a roof rack would look real cool too!

this is my favorite generation focus. I didnt even know they came in that color!

 

[kosherboy]

deff moar lowz. IMO only you can decide the path your car will take, decide what you want to do with it, then go for it

 

[bile0026]

Very true...I've been battling with people telling me that I'm nuts for putting any money into this car, and I just have to ignore them. lol

 

[cjheck]

looool haters. I could say the same to all the civic owners who tell me the same thing bout my focus...

 

[BewareOfButtlice]

everyone kept telling me i was wasting my money. Then i got coilovers. Now their mouths are shut.

AHHHHH shorten that exhaust tip!!!

AHHHHH shorten that exhaust tip!!!

Lol I know, I made my own custom exhaust and the rear hanger is in the way of the tip moving back farther which i didn't realize. I just gotta get a new tip.

Once you do some good suspension work then it will be really fun to drive. It will be like a whole new car!!

 

[kipp]

looks good so far. i might suggest lowering it and painting the front grill black (or plastidip). would go great with the tails.

 

[zx3bmxrider]

I dont think I have ever seen that color in person. I like it!

 

[bile0026]

Updated exhaust tip looks much better

Glass pack/resonator combo sounds really good!

Also tinted the rear windows.

 

[hommie]

The tip looks way better although those welds are a different story!

 

[kosherboy]

those welds are a different story!

i was gonna say the same thing, who the hell welded that for you? they must have been cross-eyed or something damn

 

[bile0026]

Lol being on a budget sucks so I had a buddy do it. The welds hold tho and at this point that's all I care about Don't have $500 for stealth exhaust which is what I would like to get eventually.

 

[bile0026]

They also look worse in the pic because of a lot of corrosion. they were better when they were first done. Thank you Northern Minnesota and salt on the roads

[bile0026]

Stupid Minnesota weather made my have to put my snows on this last couple weeks cuz we got like 3 feet of snow lol

Can't wait to get my summer tires and wheels back on

 

[bile0026]

On go the summer tires, finally!!! Also got rid of the terrible looking chrome grill

Before:

After:

 

[Now534]

Might i suggest Rustoleum Lens Tint instead of Nightshades? Rustoleum looks more glossy and less blotchy. The nightshade looks good on the top part of yours but near the bottom where the sun is it looks different which is what i noticed when i did the Nightshade.

This was 2 coats (1 light 1 medium) and no Clear Coat it looks light when the sun is on it but darker when its not.

Otherwise looks good.

Ah, that grill improves the look soooo much! Great job. I like all that you've done so far.

Only 2 things jump out at me that you could do cheap and easy:

1.) de-badge that puppy VI DULUTH, MN = Free Advertising LOL
2.) Grab a dremel and pop some fog lights in it!
