Welcome to FF! [wave] Nice looking Focus, I like the black & pink combo, very unique. Did you change up the interior at all too?

Thank you! Yeah I painted the interior plastics pink with black stars. I also have custom pink and white racing seats. Had some neons but they kept breaking so im going to get the LED pods instead. I also want to get pink carpet and redo the head liner. An, i have (2) tens on an 800 watt amp and a head unit. Very soon ill be expanding on that too.
 
Welcome missyp!! Very unique car...keep up the good work. Love the pics (not a pink fan personally) and can appreciate the work/effort put into it. Really like the hood especially. Could have just left it alone but the way the paint flows to it makes it look like a cowl and that and the pinstripe give it even more personality!

kttnmthkngs420 - A lot of folks will paint (aka, not bother covering) things in certain openings that they think/know will be changed out. I had my Cervini Stalker kit painted on the car and they did much the same w/the lower front opening and the tailpipes..... once the new pieces are on, you'll never know.

Thanks sldghmr!

im really not tryin to be a dick or anything but, who ever did ur painting did a horrible job with the overspray. even the exhaust tip is pink! did u take it to maaco? ive heard they r notorious for that kinda shit.
As I astated before, she still needs aa lot of work and cleaning up. If u understood the timeframe that we had to work with to get this done you wouldn't be saying that. No I did not take it to maaco. My father myself and my fiancee painted this car in three days to have it ready for street wars. My father is very knowledgeable in the industry and owns a reputable body shop that specializes in restorations and custom paint. THISS CAR IS NOT FINISHED AND I STILL HAVE A LOT OF CLEANING UP TO DO.
 
looks good especially for being done in a short time frame a little oversprays nothing especially when the part its on wasnt sanded first or cleaned with solvent
 
Sweet pictures, the more I look at it the more and more work I see you put into it, good job! [thumb] I didn't notice how you painted the hood, I thought it was all black, but that look really nice! You doing a custom exhaust or purchasing something? You should go dual exhaust, you got the two exits on the bumper [:D]

EBchamp, yes, there is A LOT of work in this car! Ill prob do a custom exhaust, definately dual. I just can't find one I really like. They all sound very ricey to me except for the Borla.so ill prob have to do a custom bc they don't make a borla kit for my year :(

^You weren't mean I just wanted u to know why things were done the way they were and the time frame we did things in. So u can understand and not think I just got a shotty paint job :)

Good luck with it, I think that would look killer with a dual exhaust. Any performance mods done to it?
