Virginia Roush

UPDATE: Just ordered the FSWerks CAI for it, and will be here shortly. I also ordered some constant photography lighting, so I'll be taking lots of good pictures this summer!
Hello, I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Rick, and I am from Virginia. I drive a 2007 Roush Focus Tribute. I picked it up in Oshkosh, WI for a song. They were asking $15K for it in June, but they lowered the price on it to $9K, and I talked them down to $8K. Considering it has the Roush Stage 1 kit and 38K miles, I say you can't argue with that! It isn't authentic, but I plan on making it as close to the Stage 2 Roush as possible. Realistically, all I have to do is add the Roush suspension, and it's complete, because it already has the Roush exhaust system. But I'm not going to stop there. My plan for summer is to add the FSWerks CAI, Roush suspension, Roush gauge cluster (if I can ever find one), and a few other odds and ends. Mainly, I would like to do something to the interior of the car, but...I'm still not sure what I want to do yet. That's probably one of the last things I'll touch on it. I'll post more pictures of it later today. That's the only one that I have on Photobucket at the moment, and I don't feel like searching my memory cards for the others right now.
I previously drove a 2007 Ford Focus ST in Liquid Grey, a tree fell on it in September, totaling it. It doesn't look that bad, but honestly, it was. The fuze box was cracked in half, 2 of the 4 coilpacks were cracked, the passenger A-pillar was fairly well deformed, the passenger side shock was busted, airbag deployed, fender dented, passenger window shattered...you get the point. The airbag deployed because I was driving it. TL;DR: I was driving to school, went around a blind corner at the same time as a tree was falling.
