rare as hell my friend.
I got them via word of mouth! You won't find any in better condtion either! these have never been refurbed!!

Only been stripped of paint, and I sprayed them matt black! Looks awesome don't they

You wait till you see them when they are on a finished mini

Looking good mate

Started the rear valance at last!!

Yes its not fixed the way it should, due to me de-bumpering it later... this is a just a inatial weld on, and go job.



Still needs finishing, but means I am nearly to the point on fitting the rear subby again after Stanford Hall, where I hope to find a poly bush kit for the entire car

[jack_marshall]

I remember when I stuck my valance on, made me feel loads better

Nice work Dog.

[Dog]

Ta mate.

It is nice to know I am nearly there, and almost ready to put onto it wheels

[jack_marshall]

Take my advice and do any undersealing/waxing/shultzing before you put the wheels on and put it back onto the ground...

The damp in the air will rust any bare metal.

[Dog]

Yeh I am going to fully de-grease it, and paint all the underside before I put the subby back on! and while I can get underneth!

Got the subby to re-store before I can re-fit it anyways....

[Pac]

just been looking at a few random posts and found you guys talking about focus ST orange i've been after the paint code for months and not been able to find it my local ford wont even tell me, dont suppose you have it?

[Jordie]

If you walk into a dealers with an orange ST on show, you can pick up the information and read the little stand next to the car, If i remember correctly, it tells you the colour code.

Didnt spend long in the ford garage as i could only afford a fiesta and there abit dull for me.
