Yes,
That drop looks good on your car too. You should be happy with the results, not overly low where it becomes impractical, but great for a daily driver.

It should have came that way from the factory.
Looks good, the 05's just keep growing on me.
its weird, I would have thought that your drop would be more, it sits higher than my svt??? :huh:
Marc the springs havent settled yet

There is that and also my garage floor is pretty curved....
nice man, i think the mod bug is biting pretty hard on ya....i have a feeling this is just the start B)
It'll go down another 1/2" by the time it settles. Looks good Paul... for an 05 :P

Hey Paul,
what is the measurement on that wiper blade, from end to end? It looks like it wipes across the brake lite.
I'm wondering if that arm will fit the wagon. Could be too long though.
looks really good paul. not overly modded, not cheaply modded either, but just right.

J dood, I'm not sure if the wagon would be the same but on the hatchbacks it is the same wiping area. The Mazda blade is a tiny fraction longer but, makes no real difference in cleaning area!!
So I'll ask again, Can you measure the length of the mazda arm, end to end?
My 1.5" Eibach lowering kit (dampers & springs) hasn't even shipped yet. :(

Nice to see what my drop will look like, though. Looking good!

Check out these taillights (bottom of the page), they're manufactured OEM replacements that use LED's for the brake lights instead of your standard bulb, and they fit all model year Foci hatchbacks. And I believe they're still DOT legal because they have red reflectors on them. They may be a nice addition if they're to your taste.
looks really good !
Makes me want to run out and do the full SVT upgrade! Nice work!
