I have been working on a new mod to my focus, a spoon to help direct more air up to the underside of the 2.0L auto air deflector I installed....
took me a while, and a few fustrating attempts but am pretty close to getting a design I want and that works..... Has anyone else done anything similar to their focus? My idea is to feed more air into the box for a better running machine, only concern was forcing more dust, dirt and other crap into the filter and have an expectation that my K&N may not last as long as if I wasnt delfecting more air from in front of the radiator in.. |

I was going to buy the 2L auto air deflector recently, but Ford here (at my familys house in Wollongong) wanted 40 odd bucks for it, and I remember people paying less than that. Might try Newcatsle and see if they are the same... alternatively, there's a 2.0L auto Focus sitting out the front too.... ;)
How much did people pay for theirs? Tim |

Yes, its just all a ****ing contest isnt it...
Who pays retail? Most likely the people who are not Ford employees. Which strangley enough is probably alot of us. |

I'm a Ford employee who hasn't payed Wholesale for anything because I modded my car before becoming an employee!!! The only Ford bits I bought anyway were the air deflector and the indicators... ooh could have saved enough to buy me a large Big Mac Meal. Bargain!!! The Zorst, K&N and other stuff were all retail. (let's not talk about my tint and springs, they were specials...

That's between yourself and youe Dealer to negotiate. Employee pricing on anything is not open to public discussion.
This thread's over a year and a half old!!!!!
