so you want to shave your rear hatch
I am looking for some focus owners that would like to shave the license
plate off the rear hatch of zx3-5 any one game. ( the cost would be verylow) this is includes paint too! This would happen in rochester, mn
I am making a part that can do the job in a afternoon. with out autobody skills , and later can be in CF.
If interested please pm or e-mail pictures of car and lets talk. you don't need a show car for this

i think it would be kinda cool to take the plate move it to the left a little cock it a bit, my car is soon to bee smoothed out this winter the only things it will have are door handles and mirrors, side skirts and a euro body kit simmalar to the black rs , so i think it would give it a bit of contrast, not ricy, custom, rice is for hondas, and high school kids, my car is euro all the way. it is being built to corner, and hopfully stop traffic cus it will be hot like cajan pepper!... no lambo doors though, unless you can suiside lambo doors

i dont know maybe im just different... i dont like to fall into a groove , i wanna be different, always have been. my ranger(wich i traded for the foci) all black, 33 inch tires, one of the first, in anoka to run headers, dual pipes,straight pipes, on the 4.0s, i gotta be different. and the clear tail lamps, im going with the clear grill lights, clear corners, and i want .. i spose there not clear just absent of red tail lamps on a blacked out, smoothed down kitted ,rim rollin(not bling) foci, picture it in your mind i can.

oh and to add ....last time i checked a cabon hood and black rims could be concidered ricy( no dont get all pissed, im just saying ricy is ones opion of style , what looks ricy to you may not to another)

my wheels weigh 11.2 lbs and the hood is a huge weight reducer. Open up a magazine you'll notice all the cars from decent shops aren't changing tail lights because it's just that, rice. Altezzas look good on the car they came out with, the Altezza. Changing the tail lights, corners, and parking lights to clear? That's never been done before.
Go ahead and be different, just don't be pissed if we call it as we see it. If someone asks what I think, I'm honest.
