Panther Black Focus Wagon Build Diary
Ok thought it was about time i shared my UK Wagon build diary.
*I got it in Feb 09 and it went through a quick transformation with the addition of some old 17s and then the bodykit and now its just little things that keep getting added/ Changed!
Here it is as i brought it.
Then i added the 17"s and smoked indicators.
Tinted the rear windows.
Added some angel eye headlights and badgeless grille
Headlight brows
Thought id add a bodykit.
Then time to change the lights to 1.5 lights with the inside sprayed Panther Black to match the car and also add an ST grille.
Using the clear indicators as side lights as dont need 2 sets.
Hids in dipped beam
Hids in full beam.
Both hids on.
Side lights in the dark.
Time to make the interior alittle nicer. I covered the consoles and doorcard inserts with Silver/Grey Alcantera
Of course being an estate there is plenty of room for an install.
With the Amp being lit.
Thought id start adding alittle colour under the bonnet.
Of course now there are to many colours going on so lets rework the interior.
And make the install different and more boot user friendly.
The Boot User.
Even found him a matching bowl.
Thought id treat myself to somewhere nice to sit. Full Leather Recaros. **
And a win at the FFOC National day raffle found me with a set of Headrest screens with built in Dvd players.
Id always liked the way the ST's looked with Code Red checkers so thought why not give it a try, And they could only be in one colour.
Now i got some 18" alloys which i was going to paint the lip orange but someone kindly run a 7" blade though a tyre on one of my 17s so had to swap quick before i had chance to paint but it will be done.

Well in the quest to be different ive fitted a set of bonnet vents for FordFair but not the normal Escort RS or Sapphire Cossie vents im hoping im the first with a set of Mk2 Focus RS vents.
On the way back from FordFair stopped to get a couple of pics!
Took a couple of quick pics outside the local stately home after loosing the chequers!

Almost gone full circle with the look of the new rims. Only Better!
For Christmas the daughter got me some Carbon Fibre vinyl so i have wrapped the stereo and gear stick surrounds. Dont think they came out to bad for a first attempt.
