Iv just been out and had a look at my car and i see wot you are going on about but as look would have it in the modding of my wiper i had to cut about 5mm out of the arm on the motor so it fits ok for me . This is the fun with these cars never think it will fit first time becuse 9 times out of ten it wont

just been reading about the shell build in dingles thread, looks like you've made a great start and the saff was very nice in its own right

Tidy, made one for my original Focus. But didn't like how plain it looked, so placed handmade aluminium vent surrounds
