Here is a question from the 'dumb-4rse' section of the forum . . . Why doesn't the rain flood into the engine bay through the vents and scoops? ![]() Fredo

My theory is that anyone who spends this kind of money on their car probably don't take it out in the rain. Once I have that second car my Focus will certainlly spend more time in the garage and less time in the public car parks getting scratched and dented.

Hopefully save enough cash to get coil overs. Once thats done a Quaife diff with Volvo S60r clutch upgrade are next, but they might take a while...
Wouldnt mind a few carbon fibre bits and pieces, like the engine, battery and fuse box covers. The alloy water tank would look cool too with some blue Samco water hoses. Damn mod bug... bites hard!

So far this year I've got 16" wheels put on the XT. Booked in for service, handbrake repair, rego check and wheel alignment next Thursday. I hopefully will be putting on a single 2.5" Xforce catback. Got a spoiler put on the Futura in the last week of last year. 2011 will be a biggie, trading in for a manual XT/futura/xr6 hopefully, body kit, FPV wheels, twin 2.5" herrod, fpv steering wheel/pedals, tint, already saving and I should be able to get it done mid-end of next year.
