Just had some body work done got rid of some rust, put my quads on and changed the rear badges. Any better???

 

looking good mate

i cant wait to get another escos

whereabouts was the rust?

 

Very nice buddy.

 

On the drivers door must have been a stone chip that went bad. around the filler cap and had the rear spoilers sparayed as they were flaking.

 

is it ash black mate?

 

imo the new focus rs badge looks wrong and out of place, what you gonna do with the hockey sticks are they getting sprayed?

 

What suspension have you got on it mate?! Mine's lowered on Konis but it sits up a little bit more than I'd like at the back, yours looks about right though, how I want mine so if you could help?! Mine's also Ash Black by the way but a small turbo version. I have the standard rims, twin headlamps, and the same rear light clusters as you aswell mate! Instead of the front fogs though I've gone for the RS500 grilles, and my side repeaters are clear whereas yours are tinted

 

why have you got draught excluder stuck to the top of the wing?also mind your h/shield doesnt cut through your coolant pipe to your turbo,looks like its sat on it,other than that its looking good

 

coolant pipe top advise there radman well spotted,draught excluder bit confusing me(aint hard)what is it/are they etc...thanks

 

Stevie cossie - Yes mate its ash black

Sean - well they are crap carbon ones i would like to get somenew standard ones really.

Rs cosworth 330 - Mine are also konis shocks and springs so cant really help.

Radman - Have no idea why there is draught stuff there it was there when i bought it. Yeah the heat shield is on the pipe but the shield is broken.

 

MASSIVE Improvment mate, think it looks 100% better!

 

Looks good mate. You can sometimes get the hockey sticks on ebay under parts by brand.

 

You need a stone deflector just to finish off the front end mate, they look unfinished without one

 

Looks the bollocks.... apart from the chrome things in the bumper

 

Agreed, I'm not a lover of them myself! They just don't go with anything else on the car

 

Nice looking car, good advice from the guys as usual.

When it comes to the badges - each to their own, but I think you can't fault the standard badges as they were when they left the factory.

 

car is FAR too low at the back

all esc cossies should have that arse up, nose down stance...

put the std badges back on (LT badges) and lose the tacky s/s blank plates


other than that. looks nice

 

looks good i've seen those quads some where before good luck with it

 

I have a stone defector ready to fit. Well those s/s things aint the greatest mod i must admit

 

 

are they the nomad smaoked rears...? look good

 

No not nomad mate.

 

how much and where from then bud ?

 

Nomad still sell them undecided myself

Keep it on standard lights fella!

 

Maxest the wheels turned up today pics later

 

i mean these on the nomad site ...



not these on the home page...

 

 

Think they cost about Ł60 from ESp i think they advertise in fast ford

 

wicked, ive had stuff from ESP before, some replacement morrete lenses, quality service and very quick delivery ,

 

Very nie mate

Dunno why peeps are saying fit a stone deflector?? He already has one Defo fit a lower splitter though

As above though I dont like the badges sorry... three different styles dont mix IMO

 

I need a new lower spliter - it works out about Ł100 from ford - do you rate the carbon one's?

 

Personally no, as the slightest knock and they crack

 

The bottom part is officially known as the STONE DEFLECTOR Fella, that's why

 

the bib spoiler and hockey sticks are actually the "stone deflectors" as damo says,"he already has one" its the air splitter he is missing

 

Well when I went to a 'Ford Main Dealer' and asked for a lower splitter (the part in question) he came back to me and said "that part is known as the stone deflector" so that is what I was going on!

 

Is that the first time you have known numpty Ford parts counter guys to be wrong?? Surely not

 

I know this debate has carried on for far longer than it should have already but I have just routed out the empty packaging from the back of my garage from when I bought my "splitter/deflector" and on the sticker which has all the various part numbers on etc it does say "Description:- DEFLECTOR-STONE"
