Real Euro

hmmm well i guess im going to be experimenting then. From now on almost everything I buy is going to be following that tred as I want to do something different. wOOt wOOt pulled fenders, euro bumpers, boser hood, and kerscher wheels here i come.

It'll only be real if you import it.

We can only try

im talking about euro style like...jdm only we cant exactly do that. Nevermind then

Im not new so i do realize that there a lot of cars on here with euro parts, mostly bumpers. But what Im saying is...if you hang out on clubsi at all you will see cars on there that follow a theme and have only jdm parts on the car. They pick a theme and stick to it. The guys on vwvortex are stuck on completely euroing out there cars ie, textured fenders, stretched tires on porsche wheels, and dumping them with "PULLED" fenders. Pulled fenders arent fender flares that you weld in its basically rolling your fenders but more extreme ie more than the 15mm that a roller will give you.

I was just curious if anyone was really into the euro scene like the vw guys are. I think its a direction that I will take with my car, im going to sell my motegis and exhaust in exchange for some euro brand wheels like bbs and a remus exhaust. I kind of have a passion to do this and just wanted to see if any of the jetters shared the same.

The Reiger focus is what im talking about although I think the kit is ugly its more what im talking about, those are kerscher wheels with stretched tires.

i know EXACTLY what you're talking about and honestly, I'd be in the same boat but over time, I've come to realize that it's WAY too much money for my taste...money that would be better invested in performance...but again that's just own personal thought.

I would LOVE to have wide, deep dish wheels in the front and then EVEN WIDER, fat wheels in the rear with flared fenders. That's true Euro style.

However, it's not easily done since there aren't much flaring options for the Focus and GOOD wheels aren't exactly rota-priced.

with that said, I'm still interested in getting a set of BBS wheels to get for daily driving. I'm planning on looking into a set of BBS LM's...custom drilled of course.

As for pulled fenders, I think of the two as the same. That's why flared fenders came to mind. Pulling or flaring, the fenders are coming out.

I see what you mean though. Technically they're not the same. I usually dont like flaring fenders by molding on body pieces but with the Focus you can't really do anything like "pulling" due to the construction design of the Ford's fenders. The VW fenders (and bmw I think?) are designed where it can be modified without it's structural integrity being compromised. This was discussed a while ago in one of the threads here in FJ.

Any progress on other euro parts for our Focus?

I've pretty much gone for that I guess. I mean as Euro as you can get without changing a lot of minor interior parts.

All Euro OEM Ford front and rear bumpers, fenders, skirts, spoiler, head and tail lights, grills etc. European wheels(OZ Superleggera's), European suspension(Bilstein PSS9 coilovers), European seat(Sparco). My brakes are Wilwood, but that's because the Brembo big brake kits are overpriced.

Well when I had my focus I did 100% Euro spec ext. (i.e. Morette head and tail lamps, Euro front/rear bumpers, Stoffler 98' front and ST170 rear lips, Lumma Tuning custom front splitters, Euro fenders, Lumma Tuning side skirts, FK coilovers, Hoefle upper grill, and Euro lower, FK DTM mirrors, along with 17x7.5 AT Italia Alps, ect):
