If I remember correctly, they will produce them but you have to contact them either by phone or by fb. There are full cf, frp with cf insert, or all frp.

Search fb for them first

that sounds like a pretty penny. but gotta be worth it. Ill give them a call or FB the. give it a try.

I wish that Downforce would get their website back up but they seem to be slow on that. As dyn085 said, try Facebook.

Do expect to pay a fair price; full carbon fiber like I have is $550 USD just for the lip, no shipping or anything on top of that. Getting it then sent to Canuckistan cost a lot, but I think it was worth it.

PM coming your way ThatFocusAgain.

Just some random photos for today, from the past little while (low quality phone pictures, sorry!):

Found a YB SE hatch while running errands. Notice how far back I parked to protect my lip, whereas they didn't have to care.



Spot the Focus!



I also quickly tested the vinyl that I picked up. The reverse light was tinted here to see how dark it'd be. Nice and subtle, just what I was looking for. It's a little less noticeable in the photo though. The lights are still un-tinted at this time, a full install will wait for more free time and warmer weather.

i like it! If you get a chance check out my tail lights let me know what yout think! i got them painted by a firend who is a factory painter. its a clear cote with a little black added in.

Taillights look good! I like that look of just being barely darker than stock. Kind of a Chip Foose approach to customizing. Make the people take a good hard look at it to try to figure out what's changed

I found your posts in the intro thread. I like it! Glad to see that part of the lights were left untinted, with how dark you went that looks better in my opinion.

Exactly what I like. I like the more obvious changes too, like lip/body kits and wheels, but have a lot of fun playing with subtle details that don't jump out at you at first glance.

yeah i agree i was going to smoke them white. Left the reverse light/turn signal untinted cause i like to see when i back up lol and looks better. it was nice tho cause there is actually a slight raised line around the factoy clear spot on the lense. made it really easy to tape off for paint.

i like what your doin with your YB focus its unique. the only YB foci are hatches and old people are driving them lol. I hear the YB focus is kinda rare...i see them all the time here?
