Default At Last! My Focus.

Right, after trying to post in the top speed forum, i was informed that my car is not actually part of the registry! Despite me being here from the beginning! Soo, here is is:
PS im sorry that the proof of ownership pics are so shite, but it gets dark here at 3.30pm, and i only have a camera phone with me at uni.

Oh, its a 2 litre zetec focus, with a K&N air conical air filter, home mate heat shield and cold air feed, enlarged intake pipe, ashley competition cat-back exhaust, Superchips bluefinn chip, lowered 35mm on spax springs, on 18 inch aerospeed RS-GT's in gunmetal with polished rim, 215/35 R18 toyo proxes T1-S tyres, projector smoked rear lights, hella front indicators, clear side repeaters. Alpine S-Type 12" sub, Alpine T303 Amp.
Now the pics:






















^^ That ones an older one, just after i got the wheels, the eager eyed amoung you might notice that behind the car there is now the pool i built over the summer!

^^ Cheers mate, yeah i dont plan on putting chrome 22 inch spinners on it any time soon Overall wheel diameter is actually the same, if not a couple mm less than standard, so it handles better than standard (better turn in, more steering feel).
Oh, and ive just realised that the pics are a little on the large side, im sorry. If its a problem i'll have to try and resize them in whatever shitty program i can find, and re-upload.

Wow, cheers guys, thanks for all the compliments. I do love the look of my car now, as for the impressive top speed, i actually had 130 3 times the other weekend! But thats literally all she's got on the flat.

Cheers for putting it in the registry TT

Pics of the heat shield, and a comparison with standard (quite a difference!!)

The blue thing is an aftermarket filter to throttle body silicone hose, as with the standard tube i was getting resonance at idle on warm up, making it lumpy as fuck. Smooth as a babies ass now





Standard:


Lowered on Standard 16's i quite liked this look, i recon it looks pretty slammed compared to standard! I prefer me 18's though


Oh and the M5 is me dads, the M5's in the garage, and the 330ci convertable's my mums:
