Default Ready for the Fair :)

Took some pics this morning of how she stands. A little dissapointed I couldn't get a manifold in time, but I don't think it looks too bad after just 2 months of ownership

The headlamp pod will be ready, so that will be on in the show too!

Same for me, the driveway, never really had the luxury of a garage at home. I use the 4 post ramp at a mates garage sometimes, but that just makes things too easy

But as for the FRS being all the same, I agree totally. As a rule, I hate RS purists who think more about resale value than actually making something special out of a car.

There's a lot more to come of my car, keep your eyes open

I'll be on the Fast Ford stand at Ford Fair, so won't be joining the ranks of the blue army.

Ain't it the truth Alex

The intercooler setup is my own custom system, which was originally built for my black Focus. I just recycled the pipework after the fire.

Look at this thread...
