allblue Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Good stuff, These guys always go out of their way to locate those tricky parts. I've been ordering parts from these guys since 1998. Was in there last weekend, those Focus RS's have taken over the showroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
