Default Ford Focus with 5 Lug Conversion

Heres are some photos of my friends 2004 Focus SVT with a 5x100 conversion. I personally haven't seen this done before on Focus in the States and was wondering if this was quite common on your side of the pond. The conversion was achieved by welding up the stock hubs and re-drilling them to the new bolt pattern. The wheels are BBS RE replicas and they were meant to be fitted on a Subaru. Only a 1/4" spacer was needed to get the proper offset.

BTW, if anyone has a front Focus RS Collections bumper that they are willing to part with and ship to the States please let me know.

that looks nice that does

but wouldn't it have just been easier to just swap the hubs over for a car with 5 studs? such as the mk2 focus or mk3 mondeo?

i realise you are in the states so the names may be different

CompEuroZX5 The RS Collection Bumpers are still available new from Ford Europe, so you should 'theoretically' be able to get one through Ford USA.
Car looks good too btw

That's looking awesome. What offset are the wheels with the spacers and are that 8x18"?
