My modified Focus ST, new pics

Hi all, thought I'd drop by with a few new pics of the car and try a few arty shots. Recent mods are some carbon fibre wrapping on mirrors, fog light borders and centre console. I also got the steering wheel restitched to match the rest of the interior.

Yeah thought about that but I'm too happy with the matt black to change and besides it could look totally pants

Yeah Simon was telling me you were showing him the post I made when I fitted the wheel. Have to say I just love the job he did.
As for the ST badge I see Ford copied me on the new ST

Great looking car. Congrats
I thought the interior color in the ST's was supposed to match the exterior color so I was wondering why this interior is orange? the exterior wasn't supposed to be orange as well?

cheers

That's great. It makes it a unique of its kind.

Looks very nice that! The front looks so much better without a big number plate in the middle. Is that ok and legal in Ireland to put it on the side?

As far as I know the position of the plate, once it's a certain height off the ground, is not an issue. The size however, is. Mine is 75% of standard size, been pulled on it once in nearly a year. I stuck the original plate over it for a few weeks and presented at local police station but soon after it fell off and I havnt been able to stick it back since
