Opinions needed: V. facelifting the focus

[focusinprogress]

well, im sorta thinking i might be sick of the look of my bodykit, and ive been trying to get some euro bumpers but not having too much luck finding guys on ebay.co.uk that will ship used ones here, and for all brand new bumpers its like $1500 to get a set over here with the lip kits i want for them and all the fog lighting…

this is what i have now:

sorry about the quality of those, they are old and i dont have anything more recent/clearer. some of you have seen it in person so hopefully that helps…

now…heres what i wanted to do euro-wise.
FRONT: stock 2002-up “facelift” bumper, ST170 fog lights, and a rieger lip

REAR: Stock 98-01 European rear bumper, with a stoeffler autotechnik rear lip(lip of second bumper onto bumper of the first pic…no moulding)

sideskirts probably same as that last photo there.

now my other options are:
US spec RS focus replica kit(bumpers are bigger to fit over US crashfoam and flares are included)
heres the gallery of photos of that:

or i could go back to stock bumpers and shave the moulding recess for a smooth bumper, and french lips onto them…and in that case i have these lips to choose from.

Kaminari:

Wings West W-Type:

Razzi(yuck):

or i can buy this euro replica off ebay front bumper:

or i can try to get my hands on a used SVT set of bumpers:

i like what u have over those options…altho the SVT one is sharp.

SVT … or Euro

its funny because alot of people have been telling me the body kit is hot, but im growing away from it. i dunno, maybe one more season with it until i have more cash to go baller euro style.

this is the only one that doesnt turn my stomach… but the euro stretch is lame

:word: That’s pretty clean, although WNY roads will eat it alive. not much ramp angle.

yeah i hate alot of the choices. if i was going to stick with a stock US bumper and a lip it would be either the kaminari or the wings west. and the grill would be honeycomb DIY rather than the horizontal “slats”. right now its kind of hard becuase i dont know if i will have the money for any of the options, im just playing it by ear. i was trying to get out of credit card debt and i would likt to avoid using a card to get new bumpers.
i REALLY want the euro’s…i may have just found another set i might be able to get for $300 shipped but we will see how that pans out.

I don’t like any of them. Doesn’t anybody make a “clean” looking body kit for a fuckass?

[Fry]

I guess euro or svt. They’re both pretty clean.

[HotRodKid]

get some stock bumpers and a damaged Cobra front bumper and graft them together
