I like the rear view. Nice... The Chevy sat REALLY high, needs some springs. The focus needs a little drop , too. Not as bad as the chevy did..

Which one do you like better? The FoFo hopefully.

i love(d) them both..but the focus is def. faster, even htough they are both autos. i like the black interior with the bucket seats....the cobalt had light grey and just regular old seats.

i dont think i'm gonna get it lowered...i already have enough problems getting up my driveway:p but i might put some 17s on it..only aftter my pirellis are worn down..no need to waste em

Nice focus. The only thing I suggest is clear corners. They look perfect on a white focus. I would know, since I have a white focus with clear corners. They are an easy mod that you can do yourself. I did mine, so I'm sure you could probably do it no problem. I like the rear bumper on your focus. The focus looks good.......now about the cobalt......whatever you do, don't make your focus look anything like what you did with that cobalt. Nothing personal, we all have different taste. And also......I hate chevy......so getting a focus is a huge step up from the cobalt. Good choice![thumb]

I don't mind the graphics on the Chevy, actually.. looks pretty good.

THe Focus is looking good as well... thought e front bumper is not my style.
Go and get those clear corners though.

as someone once said to me...theres stages in modding a car...
1. rice..almost everyone goes through it
2. learn from your last mistakes, start over, and get serious
3. car is lightly modded...you are pretty happy with it, then you either a, heavily mod your car, b start on a new project

i think i'm over the rice stage...lol, although i do have red neons under the focus...they look nice though

I like your car a lot, but the rear fitment against the existing body isn't so great....and the front bumper kinda hangs out on the edges. But thats just being picky.....

I think it looks sweet, especially in white.

Looks alright, I dig a clean look personally, but the kit looks pretty good. I second the clears, maybe some black SVT 5-spokes to bring the black/white contrast in? Could look mean.

i've got the same body kit. i have to get a new front bumper though cause i hydroplaned on christmas eve and tore it up. looks good; keep it up

and underglow isn't rice unless you don't do it right...if all you can see is glow, no tubes...it aint rice
I have to agree, if a neon kit is done properly it looks bad-ass.

the only suggestion i would make, is bring the bottom corners of the front bumper in with a brace. they flare out and it look s like a little kid wearing a shirt thats too big for him. I did it with the same exact bumper and it looks alot better. it lifts the front edge up alittle too to give you slightly more clearance.

Hate the front bumper, love the rear. That think looks good though.

I could see that focus without the body kit, but it's pretty nice..

There's a neon with the same graphics as your Chevy at my school.. he's trying to be JUST like an SRT4.. the huge wing, the (fake for him) dual exhaust, the automatic transmission.. hahaha

What happened to the Cobalt? You didnt have it for too long huh, considering they didnt come out all that long ago.
