    Right now, just lowering it. Its said that, Ill have a OE ST spoiler June 8th, wheels will come later if, I could ever decided on one. I may at some point do a header, cat-back, intake and a tune. Just to make the car somewhat peppy since, its a slug now.

Like i said though, has to be tasteful lol.

    This car looks good!
    Thanks, as far as looks go, short of wheels and a ST spoiler (trading for my obviously non-ST spoiler, all the looks and probably changes are done.

    Sorry I used a bad analogy, obviously your car is worth more than $800. (that one is for the ghetto folks with rims worth more than their car)
    The analogy I should have used was the one about "polishing a turd"... (I usually save that for the honda boys though)

    Anyone can modify a car ..... but it doesn't mean they should.

    I wasn't talking about the Focus but rather than, my $800 FWD POS.

    Really? So what are the terms on what is OK and NOT OK to modify? Anyone that has a FWD car is NOT allowed to modify their car? it MUST be V-8 RWD? People are not allowed to make their DD their own, and change the things they do not like about it? Not everyone wants to drive a muscle car everyday and either can not afford or chooses not to have two cars. Does this mean they are not ALLOWED to have fun with what they have? Who the hell are you to come here and say who SHOULD and SHOULDN'T modify their car?
