Nah! the three bar grill is a powerful statement. As your photochop shows, in the small space left for a grill in the Focus, three bars would have looked flimsy and weak.

Not your best effort Rules.

I like it, FR - for one of the lower/regular trims, assuming it's more aluminum/brushed-finish.
Imho Ford's gonna start 'playing around' with the bar theme...
even more when more engines come online - hybrids, diesels, etc.

lessee -
alu 2 bar for 'S' fleet grade
alu 3 bar for entry-retail 'SE'
flat black &or black chrome for appearance pkgs
chrome 2-or-3 for SEL
painted for sport
something else for GT/SVT
maybe bars with an 'imprinted' name instead of the Oval (yeah, I know - been done)
maybe something extra-aero for hybrid & sport/GT with different finishes for each...

just off the top of my head - not actual suggestions

It's a little less interesting maybe, but I think I do like it better.

Wow Ford should hire you...yours looks SO much better than their lame-ass mix of the Ion and Legacy and Scion C!

Liking the three-bar grille, colourless indicators and the alloys suit it.

I hate everything else (that is, what Ford did!)

I think, that if Ford put the three-bar, indicators, and alloys in; redo the rear end, and axed the coupe for three- and five-door HBs, this Focus would be a winner.

It's just an opinion, though!
