You did put a big smile on my face now, mate The wheels, lowering, color, everything (!) looks spot-on. I just love the Focus II 5 door hatch, had one myself (or we still have it but it's my girlfriend's car now) in aquarius blue with MS Design exterior, 18" wheels and 2.0 TDCi engine. It is a real driving machine, that's for sure.

Any more plans for the car? Keep good care of it!

Really smart looking car there, I`d love to get one, my wife wants a 4 door and after seeing this I think it`ll be a MK2 Focus. Any more plans with the engine? I`ve always fancied getting a TDCI and doing a wee project on it.

The plans are remapping, ST brakes and some parts for under the bonnet from autospecialists.

A 5 door diesel focus doesn't sound like a classic but that is really nice mate
Nice wheels and a good stance too
I drive the bosses TDCI mondeo a lot and they go well

Hello mate,

Please help me with my following question.
How did you change your white roof? With what you paint your roof?
I want to do the same way for my car.

Thank you,

The Focus ST has a black roof lining, so get yourself one of those

I bought the strut brace by autostyle.nl.
The focus is on KW coilovers.

The OEM intercooler is the same as the one on the Focus ST.
Airtech, pro alloy, ... they all fit.
I paid 600€ for a pro alloy.
