My old Ford Focus front wing (fender) was looking a bit sorry for itself so it was time to do something about it.

Love it that you always torque up the wheel nuts instead of just a rattle gun Rob.

Great info and the editing on this video is top-notch. Very well done.

Still rocking the Mk1 Focus like a beast. I did so much work to keep my mates going and then his brother borrowed it. Got wrecked on Vodka and wrapped it round a tree. After doing the work on my car I have a whole new respect for people who do body work. I prefer to stick to replacing the odd door or bumper with an identical one. Garden paint jobs are really not my thing. 😂

Nice job :-) I had to change both of the fenders on my mothers 2001 Audi A6. They were rusted trough. Common problem with that model.

@OneAuto 7 жыл бұрын

Thanks Wyatt. It took quite a while to find one the same colour.

@themechanic6117 7 жыл бұрын

It's always nice to find matching color parts. I went to school for collision repair and did body work for about 3 years...I don't miss it lol but I can't want to buy my project car and do my own body work/paint .

@OneAuto 7 жыл бұрын

Yes it took a few months to find the same colour cause I didn't want to have it painted. I've tried my hand at bodywork over the years but wasn't very good at it.

@themechanic6117 7 жыл бұрын

One Auto, definitely takes practice . Doing it for 3 years and I still have much to learn .

I only have one customer with a 3.0 tdi and that has only done about 80k without any problems. So I really can't answer your questions regarding mileage. Cheers

Only thing with the 10-15 year old Ford's is that they turn into complete rust buckets and need £200-£300 worth of welding underneath each MOT. My friend has a '57 plate Focus and it's all scabby underneath, my other friend had a '55 plate Astra and the underneath and bodywork looked loads better. But when Vauxhall's do rust, it's the floor pan that rots.

Thick layer of undersealer all under it, day before inspection so it drips on the MOT inspector so they get out form under it quickly. ;-)

Yep - just book-marked this for later reference. My brother's Focus is the same year and he drives like a dick - so it shouldn't be too long before I'll need a tutorial.
