Saw your post on the RS forum.

Weather tech laser cut floor mats are the best thing out there. Cargo organizer, I haven't seen. You can search for that on the RS forum. I remember someone did it but it was DIY with stuff bought from Amazon/Wal-Mart.

Car comes with the 235/35/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sports and like the GT350 does not come with a spare tire, jack, or tools for wheel removal. Only fix a flat and a small compressor which will do no good for a sidewall puncture. Ford doesn't offer a spare/doughnut for this car so we've all been buying Jag doughnuts, from a 2005 S Type. The spare tire thread is on the forum as well, and will list options.

There is a company called Cool Tech, that makes some common items that many of us buy. Pedal spacer, as the pedals aren't even so the spacer makes for easier heel/toe. They also make rear and front license plate mounts that are a common buy.

Anything else, just ask. Let her know Ford Performance just released a factory warranty backed tune for the car. Adds 20/26 but it's under the curve where the real gains are, not the peaks.

Now you just need to get her a red one to drive when she wears the red dress, and a yellow one for when she wears the yellow dress, and ...

Lard.


Thanks prefontaine.

False. White does.

OP: Nice car. Co-worker owned one, really zippy.

That is one sweet ride. Glad she's happy with it. I know I would be.

Sharp, I like that bright blue too.

As an ST owner,
Very good.

I bet she will have fun in the car. My ST is a great daily driver.

A few more with front plate on.





And for those that asked, she named it 'Skyler'.

Any option for centering the plate? Purely aesthetic, but that would bug the hell outta me. Centered in lower valance opening would be my choice.

The 'lower valence opening' likely houses a huge oil cooler for....well, 'purely performance' reasons!

That's a Sweet Ride right there!

In the enter of the bumper blocks air into the inter ooler,oil cooler and radiator. You also have to drill into the bumper. This is a bolt into the tow hook hole, keeping the bumper screw free, and obstruction free.

Do you tune cars? They make an AP for the MK7 GTI now, been wondering how they compare to others!

Sweet car OP. Was that her choice?!

I'll be curious what you end up thinking of it. There was one that showed up recently at the local Ford Dealership and I was drooling a little over it as I drove by recently.

I love it, my wife loves it. Keep in mind she comes to this from a track car, and me from a nicely set up and tuned A4. I drive a truck now, it is fun and enjoyable.

Neat car. Watch those parking blocks!!

found this at SVT Performance


I've had a few requests for a "No Drill" front license plate bracket for the new Ford Focus ST because guys don't like the license plate in the middle of the upper grill. Turns out that the 99-04 Mustang bracket I sell fits the Focus ST as well. There aren't too many places to attach the bracket so here is what I've come up with.

Craig's Custom Mustang Brackets is offering it's "No Drill" Front License Plate Bracket at a 10% discount off (non sale prices) to SVTP members. "Absolutely No Drilling" is required and install/removal can be done in a matter of minutes. Put it on to drive and take it off to show/race. Heck, keep it in your trunk or behind your seat with your plate mounted to it and if you get pulled over, get it out, install it and say you forgot to put it back on after you washed your car last time. :shrug:

All my brackets have rubber bumper protection in place, so no metal part of the bracket ever touches the painted portion of the car. They are hand crafted out of architectural grade aluminum, powder coated or polished and come with all stainless steel hardware.

Satin Black Powder Coated: $43.95 (Shipping $7.50) (This is a SVTP forum member only price).

Also this seems to be the hot ticket for removable front plate mounts,

I like the plan where you just put the plate in the back seat, and if pulled over just get it out and tell the officer you forgot to put it back on after coming through the auto wash and install it... LOL

I have had a "no drill" license plate holder. Absolutely loved having it because I almost never put my plate on unless pulled over because of it.

I like the tow hook list plate holder.

Purely a symmetry thing for me. Looks like an after thought (guessing it is a add on solution for those of us in 2 plate states). I would have probably just layed it on the dash if it were mine.

As long as the owner is happy with it, that's all that matters.

Nice car, I like the color - enjoy!!
