      Thanks bud. I don't get to detail it as much like I use too. The new living conditions don't allow that anymore. Apartment living and not having the parents carport close by stinks. I do take it to a local car wash place that does only washing by hand. So she doesn't get too dirty.

        Wow if I could buy brand new tires for only $65 each I wouldn't have the 4 different kind/brand of tires I currently have on my Cadillac today! Hahaha

        And if having 4 different kind of tires wasn't bad enough, I bought them all used at different times. Lol.

        I heard Joe Fernandez say 1 of the funniest things about it being a well known habit among all Latins having 4 mismatched tires on our vehicles. It's soo true! Lmao.

        But hey, at least my tires are clean and shiny at all times

          The new front bumper looks worlds better than the stock one. Fills out the front end nicely. Now lower it :P

          I was dying laughing when I heard him say that on Larry's podcast.

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

                A little update for you.

                I got rid of the ZX2 at the end of March 2016 and bought something new.

                Say hi to my 2016 Ford Focus ST with the 2.0 EcoBoost I-4. These pictures are from today after her first wash by me. No polish or sealant, just Optimum Car Wash and some Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel.

                  Nice ride! When's it getting the "full treatment"?

                      Nice! Welcome to the ST club! Is it a 1, 2 or 3?

                          I hope real soon. I've already gave her a bath last month, but that's been washed away with all this rain we've had in SE Texas. She needs a good clay bar, polish, and sealant done quickly.

                          All it takes is a trip to your local dealership and land you one. I found this one locally brand new on the cheap.

                          Thank you. It's a ST1. The only thing I want from the other ST upgrades is the HID headlights. The Recaro seats are nice, but the stock ST seats are very comfy. BTW, are you on FocusST.org?

                          Thank you. Since these pictures were taken, I've added a Borla cat back exhaust to the ST now. Here is a video.

                          This video is after it was installed:



                          This video was the next morning at first start up and just letting it run it's idle down on it's own:

                            HAHAHA No dice for me! I purchased a blower for my Mustang on April 29th so no big money spending for me for awhile if I wish to stay married!

                              The headlights are so expensive. Are you going to go aftermarket? ...and yes, I'm on there too! My U/N is darthroush
