Heavily Modified Focus RS with all of the Right Goodies
The Focus RS has been a very popular car in the tuning community. With 350hp on tap, active AWD system and plenty of room for modification, no wonder this vehicle has such a large following. With this being the first Focus RS to hit the US Shores, Ford needed to create something that competes with similar vehicles in its class. So far, we would have to say they accomplished their goals.
This particular owner @SoCal_Life3tyle, made the move into a Focus RS from a Subaru WRX STI. So far he is loving the transition to the new Ford hot hatch. Even though each vehicle has it’s pro’s and con’s, the Ford has a ton to offer, even in stock form. Since purchasing the vehicle it has undergone a TON of modifications with both visual upgrades and performance upgrades. One of these modifications include our very own signature Volk TE37 wheels finished in bronze.
Posted below is his “Mile long” list of upgrades done to the car. If you have any questions regarding modifying your Ford Focus RS, please do not hesitate to contact us.
