Looks good! I like the green accenting, it's a cool shade. Also the new bumper is sweet, although I like your old one as well.

What are the little switches molded next to your gauges where the useless cubby used to be?

You did better with your English than I could ever do with German.

When you say 'gas' not Petrol, are you saying you can modify your focus to run on propane or natural gas?

Danke! :driv

Hmmm i would love to get my car to run on a little propane. I know as much as it's not like nitrous you have a valve where you can turn it on the whole time and use it constantly but if you want you can also turn it up. Its not near as bad on internals however it's not near the power of nitrous but good for a nice little boost.

Where did you get the parts to run propane? I am wanting to look into this.

Please let me know.

Did you have to get a retune your Engine Computer?

Not too many cars are setup to run propane or Natural Gas.
The new thing is for people to get FlexFuel Vehicles to run on E85 (85% Ethanol from corn, and 15% gasoline)

A fuel station near me sells propane. DO you have a picture of where you fill your tank? Otherwise I could probably fill up on Natural gas at my home.
