insurance!
I personally like the OEM taillight look. Now with a combination of the two, thats exactly the look I tried to accomplish 7 years ago w/ vinyl... to look like the 2nd gen Rx-7 taillights.

Want to hear something funny, one of my members in my club has a SVT contour (realy nice and fast car) Well he was driving along and some dumb lady pulls out right infront of him and he t-bones her at 15mph. The hole side of the 4 door focus was all bashed in you can not open the doors i mean this car was totaled drivable but bashed in good. And the only thing wrong with my freinds SVT is the bumper and head light was scratched no cracked bumper not bent frame nothing just some body work thats it. When you look at the focus your like HOLY s--- look at the SVT you start laughing about it because NO damage just needs the bumper repainted.

Nope.. I only had public liability.. so all that fixin came out of my pocket... It wasent cheap either.. Plus I doubt that insurance would cover things like my intercooler and turbo and such.. Those bastards..
And the rims are Focal F5's, Chiggles. I dont think they make them anymore..
Also, THANKS for the comments guys..

I've always liked those rims, I wanted to buy those rims a few years back but couldn't find any place that could get them locally.
