    Hiya!  My name is Walter and I got my RS (2017) just a few weeks ago.

    So far:

    • Wrapped (3M Gloss Black Rose)
    • Conti Extreme Contact All Seasons
    • Weighted Shift Knob (homemade lockout adaptor)
    • Front Plate (NY…)

    It’s my first Ford, so I’ll be on the forums a lot to do some learning.

    3/4 Low

    More to come!

    Other than the RS, I’m doing a restoration/rebuild of my 1st car (a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse).

     

    Cheers

    Hello and Welcome to the Club mate!!

    Your RS looks good with that wrap on it!! I like how you’ve had the black plastic on the doors around the windows done. Very nice!!

    You any other mods planned for it??

    Cheers, Marc.

    @bobcat,

    Happy to share!  And I’m from western New York.  Plenty of snow (though I’ve yet to drift around in a snowy lot yet)

     


    @brembo
    ,

    Thank you!  And yes: putting in a new intake this week (for the turbo noise), hoping to do a BOV, wheel spacers, and lower it a bit this summer.

    Nice car Walter. Very unique.

    Did you have it wrapped – Looks nice.

    What about them wheels – Are they 18’s?

    You say “So Far”, so what’s next?.

    @Walter, have you driven the RS in the snow! If you have, how have you found it handles.

    Nice!! Wheel Spacers and lowering springs totally improve the stance of the car.

    I’ve fitted 15mm spacers to mine and Mountune springs which is 10mm drop at front and 15mm drop at rear.

    Cheers, Marc.

    It’s just a wee splatter up the sides. Lol!!

    If I’d pull ma finger out and get some Mud Flaps it would have stopped that. ??.

    Cheers, Marc.
