Hey Guys.

Well its time to start the Thread that will Have all the Mods....

Firstly the Mod list
Focus Zetec Mod List

1x Rear Covered Wiper.
Focus ST style front wipers
Personalised Plates
Whiteline Sway Bars
AEM cam gears
SVT Airbox and SVT snorkel
Auto Air Deflector
Dream science
ST170 Extractors
Sports Cat
Custom Exhaust: 2.5” Catback with 2 Red back Mufflers and a 3.5” 20 deg slash Cut Tip.

Jackson Racing Supercharger kit with Big boost Upgrade
Excedy Stage 2 clutch + master slave cylinder
Quaife LSD

Secondly..

The First question i have.

Okay i know i was looking @ the RS kit but after finding out the Price Tag i stumbled and nearly had a heart attack.

Since then i have been focusing on looking at the Standard one...

Anywho tonight i was shown this by one of my fellow Foci owners,





http://www.sc1.com.au/alkon/index.ph...ls&prd_id=3053

It is an AUS company that has designed a Replica Focus RS bodykit. there are a few VERY sublte Differences which im sure the Euro Forders should be able to pick up if they have a close look.

Anywho... my question is, IS it worth it.. .

I have also come across this from the UK ebay. But they are based in Poland and ship Worldwide. it seems to be the Front bar thats on Colin Macrae's Focus RS rally car.



Now we all know what a Focus RS looks like.

But for those who dont here is a Picture for you.





Also my other Intentions are to Get the Standard Ford Side Skirts and the Standard Rear bar and put that on. But also Purchase the PROPER focus RS rear spoiler.

SO what you all have to say?

That kit by Alkon is the one I thought of back when you first mentioned you wanted one, went to their website but couldnt find it.

If you do want it Id suggest to get onto them ASAP because back when I had my Focus I enquired about it, and they were down to their last 3 kits that were being sold on Ebay. And that was well over 12 months ago.

Itd look great without those stupid headlight covers though.

Yeh, lose the headlight covers. If you wanted, you could also find some Mark I headlights without the indicators for true RS look. Sean, you may also be better off looking for an RS replica rear spoiler. The real one requires a different third brake light

The Front Bar is fantastic and I also think you should just leave the headlights as is.

I think the RS look rocks, if you can get an RS style kit then it would be a good choice.

You already know my first choice in a kit though, but as you know it's expensive.

I agree. The RS front bar is an excellent choice.

OKay guys... here is the link to my thread on EFC.. ill be updating onthere so keep an eye out...

Have had many thoughts. and still doing Research on the way i want to go. considering i have learnt a few things now about tunning, other things that i thought would be impossible or had doubts about have been changed

And there is nothing saying that what i know now cannot still be changed.
