I have updated pics, but the only new thing that has been done, is the side mirrors have been shaved off. I am currently saving for an air ride system that is going to put me back $2,100. Once I get that I can mold the front bumper and get the car painted. Please dont make fun of the cotton that is only for shows and you get more points if you have a display while at a show. I will have updated pics of the last show on here soon and some of the car not at a show. Thanks for your comments.

I know most people in here dont like the cotton but too bad! This is from the most recent show that I took 2nd place in. There was several other Focus's there but the one that beat me was perfect!

These are all of the trohpies I have won since Nopi last year. I currently took 2nd at the 97.9 Custom Calentine Show where over 15,000 people showed up. It was a very ghetto show.

I can't see too much, pictures are too small. It looks like your car has rabies...

Isn't that FocalX's old ride? If I remember right his name was Nick and he was in the Norfolk, VA area. If it is, you've come a good bit since he sold it.

18" Konig Tantrums I think they are discontinued? I want to get some 19" chrome rims.

car is ok. But the shaving job he did with fiberglass and bondo just doesnt look right, the doorhandles you can obviously tell where they were even primered. so yeah, unless you have gone over your work agian and made t better, i would go over it agian

good luck

you dont need cotton balls to make your car look good, let your car be the statement not all the cottonballs

Yes, needs WAY less cottonballs.

I really hate the whole "cottonball burnout" thing too, looks really really tacky.

It looks like you've got a fiar amount of work in that car and it would just look so much nicer on its own. Like Tribal said: let he car be the statement. Right now the statement is: "HEY! I just wasted about two hours and 30 bags of cottonballs!"
