Looking for tips to spruce up my 2009 Ford Focus coupe. Not trying to go too crazy but would love to hear ideas!

Definitely start with a good wash and wax. Use Meguiar’s Plastix on the headlights, too. It really helps.

Just set it on fire, haha.

LOL, fire would be an upgrade!

You could match the headlights to the wheels and add some tint.

Honestly, you probably can’t. Enjoy it for what it is…a super reliable commuter. I’ve had 4 of these.

I don’t know… mine gets only about 300 km on a tank.

Are you sure that’s normal? Maybe it’s your driving style?

Not so sure. At 100-120 km/h, it sits at 3300 rpm and just eats through the fuel.

:sweat_smile: Mine does 2000 rpm at 70 mph.

Is yours manual or automatic?

Manual here.

I think the coupe looks cool! They’re rare these days. But those bumpers? Yeah, not it. Maybe try a front body kit.

Totally agree! I’ve been looking for a new front bumper… the current one’s ugly as heck.

Consider some new headlights? I think it would look sharper that way.

Mine’s the same color! I added an OEM paint-matched spoiler, shadowed headlights, and 25% tint all around (except the windshield). That’s pretty much all I did.

Where’d you get the spoiler? I just did 15% tint all around.

Amazon. It’s from a brand called Razzi. Perfect fit and paint-matched. But yeah, had to drill holes in the trunk lid.

Thanks for the tip!

Dark headlight housings and a good polish would make it pop.
