Took care of the front end…again.

[SemperFiMarine2]

I just passed 1 year of ownership and rolled over 14,000 miles! It's been a while since I've modded my ST due to waiting on parts coming out and me saving up the money. Finally! I was able to spend some money and purchased 3 mods.

BC Racing Coilovers
ST3 HID Replicas
Triple R Composites Front Lip (chin spoiler)

Here's what it looked like before the mods, sitting on H&R springs. You can see that the front really needed to come down some.

Here it is now!

Thanks for looking and let me know what you guys think!

Nice! The more I look at those photos, the more I say "Man, a white would look killer on these cars"

 

[starnsey]

That looks freaking sweet! How is the ride?

 

[StangingAround]

Those are OEM wheels correct? Spacers I assume because the stance is great.

 

[R.D.P.]

Looks good, sweet little ride, bet it handles awesome!

White does look good! But silver is the cleanest! :rockon:

Thanks, and it feels great! The coils aren't too stiff or soft for daily driving and a little bit of spirited corners!

Yup, the stock wheels with 20/25 mm spacers. Thanks for the compliment! :beer:

It's like a go-cart it's so fun!

DOO WANNTTT! Man, this is a great little car, I'd love to have one. If they came in AWD I would consider it. I just couldn't get rid of the versatility of my Jeep and how beast it is in the snow.

Sits perfect now. I used to think these cars were "ehhh" until I saw a video of a stock or near stock ST whopping a couple bolt on MS3's. Impressive little cars

 

[1Bad04Mystic]

That stance is perfect, looks great man

 

[Mystic-SVT]

It's a great DD, go test drive one (in the spring, lol)!

Thanks man. It's a fun little car and with some bolt-ons and tune, it'll be even better!

Thanks a lot man!

Thanks broseph, come up and help me out then!

Also, a huge shout out to Mystic-SVT again, for helping me out install everything and putting up with me for hours and hours. He's a ****ing beast!

Good looking ST!! Hows the ride quality vs stock with both the h&r and coilovers?

Someday i will mod mine. Lol but its such a great DD as it is that I'll have hard time justifying it...well that and all my money goes to my mustang.

Looks good, really like that lip. I want to like these cars so bad. Have test drove a base one and a ST3 in the last week and almost pulled the trigger on one. They only thing that keeps me from it is the horrible bang/pop on the 1-2 shift and the seats. I know FWD cars are going to have a little thud on a quick shift, but the ST is really bad. Drove a new SI, GTI and neither did this.

The springs were great, felt like the stock ride just tighter. The coils are awesome as well. I have them set up where they're not too stiff or soft and I love them.

I sort of regret modding it, just because I can't stop now! Lol.

Quick and easy fix with an aftermarket motor mount! I replaced it a couple of months ago and don't have that problem anymore. The seats were snug in the beginning, but after driving it everyday, they'll loosen up and won't hug you as much. I'm also sure you could probably do a seat swap with someone who has an ST1 (stock Focus seats) who would want the Recaros.

But that's just me trying to sell you the car, lol.
