Just got the bumper put on, waiting for the tear drop fog lamps, and working on the inside by replacing the shifter boot to a black suede with red stitching, and a short throw shifter. Will post more pics.

Oh yeah definitely but don't you need to have a turbo system, I am sorry if I seem dumb, I just got into the scene, don't know much about the mechanics of the car, but styling I do.
The tail lights came with the car, I don't think I want to downgrade, don't get me wrong I don't like how these tails look, but I certainly do not like the stock tails.
Your car is Vermillion Red just so you know. Or did you repaint the car a different shade of red?
I got the fog lamps in just have to figure the wiring and where to mount them at in that space, drivers side fog lamp is cutting it close because of the horn.
That color was referred to as InfraRed when on the SVT Focus.
...and personally, I can't understand how you could possibly think those tails look better than the stock tails, but to each his own. :dunno:

The 03 EAP SVT is Vermillion and the regular SVT in Infra Red. If you put the two side by side, they are noticeably different. Its kind of a trip.
Very nice and you and I have the same color. Enjoy and take good care of her. If it is an 03 EAP in Vermillion, there were only 101 made in that color, that year, that trim package.

A stock, rusting header is a common occurrence in these cars. Shoot, they probably start to rust after being only a few months old. Its perfectly normal and there is nothing wrong with it at all, other than being an eye sore. You can have it jet hot coated or, for even cheaper, wrap it. Its purely cosmetic and not something that needs to be replaced on a regular basis.

Painting would be kind of iffy. Chances are that it will flake off over time and look worse than it did before. Jet hot coating is the route to take if you want something that looks nice.

*Note that it will not look be as shiny as that after a few engine heat cycles. Fades to a dull silver.
Black wrap would work but the black is only a dye on the wrap. If you clean the engine bay of the car out with a hose, the dye will fade out pretty quickly. If you plan to wrap the stock header, you will need to knock off the heat shield mounting tabs on the top and inside of the header. It isn't necessary but hey, if you are wrapping it, might as well do a nice and even job right?

I only clean my engine bay using Simple Green that stuff works perfectly.
How much would the jet hot run you in dollars?
