Default mods to my saloon

Hi guys,
Thanks for the welcome .
I was thinking nothing to heavy as i'm not a yougster like the most of you peeps,but i'm not over the hill yet.
1.A decent sound system ,either useing the 5000rds as a base or adding a aftermarket h.u
2.A nice set of wheels,[notsure if i'd have to do a bit of lowering first].
3.A bit of body work not to fancy though as it might spoil the lines.
Any suggestion from you guys would be helpful but nothing O.T.T though as i thing you can go to far if you get it wrong
thanks for any suggestions

The saloons arent as often modded as the hatchbacks but when they are they look pretty sweet.

If you want to uprate the sound system Id bin the standard headunit as its fairly restrictive.

Any wheels for the focus will fit the saloon so get yourself looking - multi spokes look pretty sweet on the saloon. It is worth dropping it maybe 30-35mm to get it to sit right on bigger wheels.

Any focus front bumper will fit and theres literally hundreds of different ones out there - some nicer than others . Have a look at the ford collection front ends as they are pretty tidy.

If you have a look on www.ffoc.co.uk theres a couple of saloons on there. Ive stuck a few pics below:
Andys Saloon
