that valve cover looks really good!

 

Dang man. I have an itch for a hatch now!

 

I prepped the valve cover with sanding and cleaner, sprayed it with two coats of Dupli-Color's adhesion promoter, three coats of high temp VHT engine black and lastly, two coats of VHT high-temp engine clear. Came out pretty good for a plastic valve cover. - Og

 

thats a crazy looking exhaust manifold!

 

Yeah, it is! It's a Pacesetter shorty header. I could have gotten a SVT version or a traditional long tube, but they are more expensive and mods have to be done. The Pacesetter was affordable and I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a engine with 140,000 miles on it. - Og

 

Sweet valve cover. Nice work!

 

Thanks, dude! It's all therapy... - Og

 

Very Nice Og

Great looking Focus, Og. I've always kind of had a hate-love relationship with those cars. Some, like the SVT I love...while others I see make me hurl.

 

that's an awesome DD...wish I could afford to do something like that and park the truck and use it only for trips, hunting, camping and fishing.

 

This weekend I tackled the calipers and drums. I used the usual suspects - leftover adhesion promoter, engine enamel and clear for the drums and G2's kit for the calipers. In between drying times, I installed the Ford Edge rear wiper and test fitted the Motegi wheels. Next project - painted and shaved SVT front and rear bumpers, rear spoiler, Lamin-X and tire/wheel install. Enjoy. - Og

 

NICE Og

 

those wheels are going to look sweet!!!

 

Thanks, dudes! - Og
