I've been keeping an eye on the American forum and the car seems to be more than capable of handling a decent amount of extra power. Having owned a MK3 Focus RS from new and keeping an eye on the American forums in a similar way, by this time tuners had blew a few cars, but I haven't seen any of...

1) Warranty friendly tuning items 2) Driving mode flexibility (I.e. Comfort dampers but sport throttle response) 3) Remove the big plastic "vents" back and front 4) Oil temp gauge 5) Brake assist on as default

No doubt that they probably look loads better in the flesh, but it's just to much money for me to not be 100%. Not having any problems with this car I hope?

Found myself going around in circles with regards to the exhaust. Remus was my first choice, but throw in the carbon tips and sound controller and it's £2k which is crazy money when I paid £750 for a fully valved system on my Focus RS. HKS would have been on the list but couldn't live with the...

I have seen a few people complaining about itso it was more to just try and elicit a few responses from people who have fixed it :p

Is anybody suffering with excessive brake squeal? Seems to only happen at very low speed. It's becoming a bit embarrassing..

I know the exact sound you are talking about. I also have it.. the strange thing is that the second you touch the accelerator it stops even if you are still "coasting". To me it sounds like the brake pads just ever so slightly touching the discs. I've also got a pretty bad crunch in 2nd gear...

Cheers. The paint I used is called VHT Anodised Red Color Coat. The only way I can describe it is that it's a little bit like metal stain that allows the material underneath to come through, so by doing it over a chrome exhaust you still get that shine with a metallic effect.

I have done a few bits and bobs over the last week or so which included adding premium type-R car mats, painting the hubs black and fitting the A119 dash cam off the back of seeing how good it looked in SuperFLY's pictures earlier in the thread. However my personal favourite "mod" that I have...

I have purchased this because of your pictures.. it looks fantastic. Can I ask which bits of trim you took off (If any) to neatly run the wires to the power?

Very nice.. how's the match to the material the arm rest is made from?

How easy are the illuminated sills to fit? I have just ordered Ricks kit & have my eye on the door sills via Cox's.

Hello lads Looking at ordering a new FK8 in the next few days. Is the Illumination pack factory fitted? Or does it get fitted when the car arrives at the dealership? If it's the latter I will be giving it a miss.
