just got a 2008 Pat, 2.4 L,
want to upgrade some of the looks but dont know who to buy from, When I owned my SVT focus, I was on focaljet.com and I knew a guy that worked for a dealership that sold for 10% above cost, anyone like that here?
Because I wanted to find a cheeper than $250 cruise control equiptment, also anyone have any ideas on some things I can change out to make my car look better on the outside.. i.e. change the grill, rims (right now I have 16" steel wheels that are ugly and want to buy at least the 5 spoke grey/chrom 17" wheels I saw on the higher end models at the dealership) thanks

Welcome Tim.

You will find many many threads on actual mods. I suggest you give the forum a good surf. As for modding, there are a few good ideas out there. There are grill inserts up to a chrome front end insert. Driving lights. Plenty of wheel/tire discussions. It really all depends on what you are looking to actually do.

Here is one example:

Looks nice Kahb!

Wish t were mine though! Hehehehe... But plan on doing that. I have the light sandstone and didn't think it would look nice on mine. then O thought... the lights are "chomed" colored. The Jeep logo is chrome. the inserts should look nice then.

Hey Focus2patriot here's more examples notice the wheels, the grille inserts and the surround inserts, the front off road element and the rear element design.
