Ford hit a bullseye with the Focus' styling, creating a dynamic package that is both visually appealing and cutting-edge. With the addition of SVT Focus body styling pieces, Euro Package wheels and the proper stance, as well as Competition Orange paint, this wagon will go from nobody to knockout! The car's high-tech interior will also be enhanced with SVTF components, painted trim pieces, and recovered seating surfaces. Also, nothing completes a high performance vehicle quite like a top-quality audio system, which will be installed utilizing a Ford Focus OE MP3 player, existing speaker locations and hidden compartments in the car's interior, emphasizing stealth and audio excellence. Here is a list of our styling modifications and the partners involved:
