                  Here is the full list of mods that i plan doing the the Scene Stiva

                  Motor: 1.6 Turbo from XR2 Capri.

                  Ext. SVT Foucs wheels, tuck the wheels, rally lights in the grill, shave rear window arm nob, fix rust holes remove side trim moldings and re-paint whole car white, HID head lights.

                  INT. New aftermarket headunit with new speakers and a single 12 inch sub; painted trim around spedo, radio etc. two or three gadge pillar pod, 5% window tint on hatch and back side glass and SCRUB seats, carpet and doors clean.

                  Miss. I have a few inside joke/ personal meanning stickers that i am gonna get custom made for the car as in: My town ( with the outline of Oakland County, MI next to it. Its from a Hollywood Undead song) Hatchet man (Insane Clown Posse) O.B.C.C ( Odd Ball Car Club) Across the top of the back glass "SCENE STIVA" and also a Ford Festiva.Com sticker.

                  This is my evil master plan for my car. I will post pics as she comes along. Thank you for your suport

                    Welcome to the site, let the fun begin.
                    An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                      I don't think the SVT focus rims will work, I believe focus's are 4x108mm which won't match Festiva or aspire bolt pattern, I could be wrong though

                      Either way, welcome

                      1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

                      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                          Yes, Focus is 108mm bolt pattern. Don't ask me why.
