The Wifes Car
 

So now im sure this is a little out there haha but she wanted her 05 focus to lets say stand out from the crowd. so for the past 3 weeks or so i have been trying to come up with ideas for her car and this is was ended up happening lol. we painted it Jet Black and Hot Pink with a red pearl clear coat. Put in some LED taillights and halo headlights. So i know it doesnt appeal to everyone but let me know what you guys think about it.

so I found a Body kit online that was supposed to fit on the car but like usual they never get the years right and it turns out it wasnt even close to fitting on this car. So i heated up the front bumper and molded it into the shape we needed. By doing this it still wasnt close to fitting right so we then had to weld a small plate of metal and then rivet it onto the bumper to get our shape. So now the front end is a one piece clip. The rear bumper, we took the body kit and cut it into pieces and attached it to the stock rear bumper. then after the front and rear were held on the car in place, the lovely fiberglass/bondo adventure began haha.

finished product we still have some fine tuning to finish like some touch up and what not but she loves it so i guess i did ok haha but let me know hat you guys think

hahahah saw this on facebook, was not sure it was your car...

Awesome shade of pink:nod:

The compact car scene isn't my cup of tea, but I think you did a great job on the bodywork! I like the paint scheme (Minus the red clearcoat overlay, but the photos probably don't do it justice); very nice lines in my opinion. Did you do all of this in your driveway, or do you work in a shop?

thanks i did all this at my shop in freehold. and 86ta we should have them take some pics together haha. matt- yea it was the brightest pink we could find haha and she didnt know about all the body work until i was done so she was pretty surprised

does it have a pink exhaust tip too?

Yeah definitely not my thing but it screams attention. Nice work, Mark.

thanks adam and yea the tip is pink bc the paper blew off and i didnt feel like covering it again haha so it got painted too

well while its most definatly not my thing it is a good job.....and i guess theres no missing your wife if shes driving around brick lol

haha yea you cant miss that car anywhere

Good job, you can certainly tell it is a woman's car

thanks and yea she is a nut haha

haha saw you two at the car wash on easter....my car was parked out front i stopped in to see a friend of mine who runs the wash

yea we were rinsing it off to show the family and that pink gets dirty in like 5 minutes haha thats funny you shoulda said hi

Not my cup of tea but I can apperiate the work that went into it. You need to fix those buffer trails though

do not want

I can appreciate the work that went into it(as others have said) but the end result looks like an aborted fetus. :rofl: But, if the wife is happy then that means you're happy and that's all that matters right? ;)

Would have but I didn't see you pull in, I saw u leaving

yea that wasnt even fully buffed yet ran outta time lol. and yea your car looked good i remember it sitting there now haha
