yeah i hear ya man. i have found that when i try to make things, they end up in disaster and never work. or just generally take things apart lol. just wondering but how much did you pick up those wheels for? i know it was a private seller. i've found them the cheapest at jegs

Here's the ad. I paid full price ($450) but the owner also throw in the lug nuts, Focus repair guide book, and random clips and stuff he had left over from his car.

Haha. Thanks man. Keep an eye out for deals like this, though. They always, and I mean always, pop up right after you have given up on finding any.

yeah i know what you mean. that's how i got my car to be honest. i drove past a vw dealership and saw a focus sitting in the back. pulled in and it was an 03 zx3 with 2800 on the window. had a bad trans. i was pissed lol. but found my car which was a 5 speed 3 days later for 3000 got it down to 2700. not too bad.
