Why buy a Focus if you want to dramatically change the look of the thing. A bodykit should ENHANCE not DESTROY

The only kit that should be fitted to Focus is the WRC kit.



or the early style with the smaller rear wing like this




i.e. NOT this one. As the spoiler looks cack

Work on the theory less is more.

It looks ok as it is now, but if you DO have to fit a kit..... see above

Fuck me that storm kit is wank

But there this other kit, never seen it on a UK car tho, with wider arches, arch extensions infact, and looks hard as fuck, would suit a RWD or 4x4 better than a FWD tho

Not just MY opinion.

Nobody on this thread has said they like it. Apart from Steve and even then it wasnt the EXACT same kit.

We dont live in California or Tokyo. We live in Britain. And we tend to go for a more Motorsport look here. Max Power may want EVERY Saxo, Pug or Astra to look "Jap Style" (And I saw in Tescos the current MP with "Why your next car must be Jap" on the front cover) But the bodykits dont suit the cars. The shapes are all wrong.

Look at the grill and the angle of the bonnet, looks like the rear is on ramps

Not keen on that kit mate, just seems a bit "big" for the car (believe me, I've "been there and done that" when it's come to Foci bodywork mods)

oi you lot - mine's in Max Power next month LOL
