Though Cervini's has played in the Focus market before, the Focus yousee here is its latest foray into Ford's sport-compact offering.

The results take a regular Ford Focus and make it over intosomething capable of turning the heads of even the most-seasonedgearhead.
Starting with a cutting-edge ground-effects package, this package($1,999) includes Cervini's Mach 5 hood, new front and rear bumpercovers, side skirts, fender vents, and both the top and wrap-aroundwings. This ground-effects package is also featured in the video gameForza Motorsport, available for XBox 360. Cervini's painted the bodycomponents in house, but any competent body or custom shop can prep andpaint them prior to installation. Of course, Cervini's also addedperformance wheels and brakes, and the neck-snapping paint scheme tocomplete the package, but we're sure you'll do accordingly as well.
