Project "smooth ass" ford focus

well i got a bit bored of my other projects the other night, and well i had a look at my ever growing pile of models.
The focus was crying at me, so i picked it up and started work on the body, well here is the list so far:-

Rear plate recess made flush with the rest of the tailgate.
Roof vent hole made flush with roof.
Door handles removed and flushed.
Door moldings flushed with body for a completely smooth door.
Sideskirts blended into rear quarters.
Front air intake smoothed off and central vent reduced in size.
Front honeycomb grill smoothed off to make it smoother and sleeker.

Rims are on their way and should be with me by saturday. they are 19" chrome rims which i cant remember the name of but look sweet.

Paint is going to be a flip paint of a red to purple flip

Hope you like

i just wanted my "street" focus to be different from everyone elses out there. as the focus is becoming more worldly i wanted to make something every one could apreciate .

smoothness is what i love, simplicity and fluidness

hope i can pull it off

i'd go with the amistad v's too, they have more of that looks/performance streetable look about them. i totally appreciate what you're doing with the focus. that's really admirable with the smooth thing going on. always seeing pics of ones with huge overdone body kits and jagged edges, and that's in 1:1 scale. keep up the good work. only question is, who makes that? i've been looking for something along those lines, but it sounded like the body kit was already on there. keep posting your progress, you've got something there.


your local punker...

Nice project, Chris. what color is the focus going to be?

=> the Amistad v's would be cool, I would suggest leaving the rims in chrome color

=> Fabulous would look good if the inner is the same color as body

just a thought......

hehe, n my name should be joecwlaw
