  • The Unwanted Step Child

    Thought I'd actually start a build thread for my 2003 Ford Focus Svt. I got the car for graduation in 2010 and, it all started there. Mistakes came but, I seem to be on the right path now.(I hope lol)

    Here it is as of new to me in 2010 with 76K on it relatively unmolested I thought I'd change that thou.



    Removed previous rice. Installed European St170 style grille


    Then lows came or so I thought at the time along with new wheels



    The scene kid started coming out so I bought a roof rack


    Made the wise decision to break open the H.I.D to paint them black. Result weren't bad should have put new lenses on instead of reusing the 10 year old ones.




    I finally had made the decision I wanted moar Low
    Bought H&R coilovers along with Massive Speed Adjustable rear camber and toe arms




    After coilovers set to full height as the wheel tire combo wasn't what I wanted


    Then came problems



    At this point I was just waiting for funds to recover so started doing same things
    New rear diffuser and hardwood trunk



    New Wheels came late 2013(Esm 004's 17x8 et38)





    Stayed like that for a while
    Found at set of Fiesta St wheels for cheap to use for Winter wheels and pulled the trigger on ST170 Headlights from Germany




    Then 2 weeks before Carisle Style and Performance had it wrapped High Gloss Orange




    That's where it is now. I've since ordered another set of wheels which should be here tomorrow. Hope even bigger plans for 2016

    Sweet car man, love the orange. That hardwood technique you took to the rear hatch has given me some ideas for future projects on my Pacer, thanks for the inspiration.

        I've always liked these SVT focus's. Would love to see it on the ST fiesta wheels. Is it wrong that I really liked the SVT170 decal on it? Maybe change it up and make it say ST170? The engines in these things are also pretty damn impressive as well. I love everything oem cosworth.

        Would look so much better with a proper license plate mount and a non bashed plate.

              Wow, really digging this. Always thought these cars were unique and had their own brand of cool factor.
