Ron, that looks great. It's a pity it wasn't ready when I dropped into your work!
Top job indeed.

Where are the holes?
On the underside it looks solid and there is no air passing from the scoop into the engine bay.
Or was it just done for looks?

looking good RON. did the 19" throw out the tyre diamiter? What tyres did you go with??


Rosco: the stud pattern on the Focus is rather unusual and certainlly not gonna fit a crappydore. Id say the crappydore driver is just envoius of Ron's beast.

So... are there any more updates on this baby?

I'm not the biggest fan of the bonnet scoop - could have been a bit more curvy to match the bonnet only IMO - I respect the awesome effort you have put into making your own scoop!

New wheels? Suit it way better!
