my vision for the focus exterior

Sublimetime86 · Wed Nov 02, 2005 8:28 pm

ok, this is my master plan for "true blue" my car's nick name...god i'm a dork NE WAYS.
I'v got a dark blue focus and I'm planing on doing white accents IE... white ford ground effects kit, white 17' FR rims, two racing stripes all the way across the car, white upper and lower grills, and a white windshield banner... I think it will look nice
what does everyone think?

Instead of racing stripes, maybe white GT350 stripes? And I'm not sure about the 2 tone body kit, but the rims sound good.

the gt 350 stripes would be nice... but I just can't bring myself to put them on a focus. don't get me wrong, i love the focus, but it will never be a gt350. Don't think so much " Body kit" think... montycarlo lip.

ok, i think i've stepped on a good amount of toes for the night

p.s. great work on the forum logos, they're all freaken sweat

It does'nt have to be just like the gt350 stripe. Just something along the lines. To me, the front end of the Focus don't look right with racing stripes down the middle(sorry Flea

)

The Shelby stripes to me, look alot smoother and cleaner.

And as the lip goes, I know about the two tone, my mom owns a Dale Earnhardt Ed. Intimidator Monte Carlo. Due to the colors, you could get away with it, but white/red is gonna be too clashing.

Heres some chops I did for some guys on FJ

As for what? Like color of rims? Or graphics? Black is by far the best color combo with the orange.

^^so o2, u say black??^^ i got the rims, i think is the best look for my car... but how bout designs and colors (graphics), or what about the sticker decals... those should be black too then?? i was thinkin about red... i was gonna do a photo chop like urs above to see how it looks.... but im not too good wit it.....

Sublimetime86, I saw your car at the Billabong meet so i guess it helps. I think your plan sounds fine, it's just that I don't think the white ground effects would really look right. Everything else is fine. I know your grills were silver, but if you paint them white try to hide the turn signals, any way you can.

could anyone do a photo shop of my car?

i'm thinking that painting the grills white might look nice, but i wonder if I could smoke the turn signals, or buy the grill with clear turn signals.

I think painting the grills white will make it look cheap.

kinda what i'm thinking too, the silver looks nice but doesn't stand out too much... if anyone is having an install party, or is interested in having one any time in january let me know. (the misses is leaving in jan. so i need to keep myself busy.

Suspepention maybe?
