Here's all the crap I took out-

The winter and Ford's shitty stock brake pads have taken their toll on my poor wheels :(
They need a serious washing in the spring.

but the rears look like new!

I also centered and extended the Borla tip just a bit. I've been neglecting that 5-minutes task

Looking very good. I miss my little silver hatch...

The wheels just look odd tho, never a fan of those. But all well. Your hatch.

Is the knob a Mustang or Fiesta knob?
Pants too tight, wheels so bright!

not sure what the knob is from. I got it from cfm along with my poly inserts last weekend

As for the wheels, I have always had mixed feelings about them. Sometimes they look great, othertimes I don't like them. But they always look odd in pictures. I just can't figure out how to photograph them.

it's much more comfortable to use than the stock rubber one I had. I wasnt expecting that.

I know!
I hate the tach now :(
I have it there purely for it's function. it's not at all aesthetically pleasing.
I need to find a 2-1/4 one to tuck away in the cluster or just break down and buy a stock cluster w/ tach :(
I'm sick of people calling me a ricer simply because of the tach... I'd never heard anything but comments before it and I'm sick of defending myself.

wires dont bother me at all. the whole point was to have a working tach on a budget.
The ugly thing on my dash was MUCH cheaper than getting a stock cluster reprogrammed and in there
I'd LOVE to make my own cluster with some bad-ass Defi gauges but that ain't happening until I'm rich. and I won't be driving a focus by that time.

Doesnt look Ricer to me, looks more like 400hp drag car to me.

I just swapped mine out for one with a tach, cant you do the same?

We have to have them reprogrammed for the 07's Don't recall why.
Back when I was looking for a cluster w/ similar miles (12,800 now) I was looking at at least $250 w/ the reprogramming by Ford.

might want to look into that. As far as I can find from 05 up you can swap. the mileage stays with the cluster, so yes in order to get "correct" mileage it needs to be programmed. Get one a little higher mileage and wait until it matches and you should be OK.
