Love the RST badge that was shown. And I’m thinking of doing this conversion with my ST but would be using maxtons version Rs bumper as mine is a PFL mk3.
Your video is great 👍
The best intro yet!
Where did you buy the bumper?
And did the bumper come with the fog lights?
Boss is possible to do this swap to a 2015 SE hatchback? Where did you bought the bumper?
Yes and we bought it from the Ford dealership
@@octanetvchannel I was actually wondering about the same question, now curious do you have to do like any mods to the car or is it a straight Bolt-on? Just curious because I don’t want to get it and it doesn’t fit and I really don’t want to have to return it.!
I just did mine too I have Ford focus see with Rs bumper it look so good
yoo im tryna do the same but idk if it will work for 2013
oretty sure you have time swap headlights and hood but is that all doesnt seem too hard if itss all ab parts
Do you have a part number for the top piece bumper part?? Or can I use the one I have on my st already?
Where did you get the bumper?
Very cool
Wait hold on, I might've missed it, Where did you get the "RST" emblem? I'm picking up an RS bumper tomorrow, and would love to have an emblem like that!
Also, thanks for this incredible instructive and helpful video, this is actually really helpful for what I'm gonna face when I decide to mount the bumper!
You can probably have it 3D printed by someone with the ST font, but I believe there is a Chevy RST emblem you can find online, it's just not the same font.
Did you go up to the ford dealership and buy it or did u go on the ford dealership web page ??
Dealer page. We ordered it online and picked it up at the dealership
I'm confused why you are taping into the harness? Did you not have original ST bumper with the Fog light wiring?
Will this work on Ford Focus SEL? If so, where can I find a how-to on conversion. Im driving around with a front bumperless SEL. let me know
Yes if it is the same headlights
@@octanetvchannel yes it is the same headlights. Do you recommend a website i could check out to learn what needs changed or tips?
@@octanetvchannel which headlights do you need? I have a 2014 Ford Focus se will this work?
@Kael Ketelsen you need 2015 hood and headlights, plus other brackets, ect
I have a 2018 focus ST line can someone tell me is a Rs bumper will go straight on please
Will this work on a 2013 focus sedan se?
yoo same
any luck?
Why did you splice the wires for the fog lights. Doesn’t the ST wiring harness for the fog lights simply plug in to the RS fog lights?
Unfortunately no they don't. They use totally different fog light systems and bezels. Also when I sold my St bumper I had no idea that he took my harness off of there which I could have used part of it but I ended up having to just make my own
@@octanetvchannel That makes sense. I was curious because another person on CZcams that did the conversion said it was plug n play with the wiring harness from the ST. Maybe if you would have kept your it would have been easier.
I dident see you're comment, I just asked the same question, I just did the conversion yesterday and the Fog light wiring is the same as the ST, The H8/H11 Plug for the bulb should just plug into same bulb on the RS fog light, I've not fitted fogs yet as I thought I needed to buy new plugs.
@@stuarts4673 Could you keep me posted as soon as you install the fogs in? Can I see your results?
@@jayvin_2169 will do
is it necessary to change hood also? What about mk3 pre-lift version? [2011-2014]
the pre-lift will need a change because the headlights are a different shape making the hood a different shape
Could u fit an st or rs bumper on just the base model s sedan
Yes you can
@@octanetvchannel thank you, may my dreams of ricing my mom car continue
How much was all this roughly ? I have a 2016 focus se sedan and I wanna put a RS bumper on the front.
I am making a cost video this week
63/4 usually
@@octanetvchannel Excellent video thanks for this.
Are you still planning to release the cost video? Or could you clarify what you mean by "63/4 usually" in response to the cost question.
@@kacperjastrzebski8589 Yes actually we are going to be making a video in the next few weeks on the cost of everything
@@octanetvchannel Im just about to do this conversion, Am i right the st under tray dosen't fit the bumper?
Can you do the back bumper too?
Yes
@@octanetvchannel like it fits without any problems or you’ll do it for a video?
@@nathanbaer8246 I did the back bumper. Had zero issues. Only had to tap into the wiring for the 4th brake light. You can get a dual led bulb and possibly make it stoplight/reverse
So the bumber from the RS will fit on the Ford Focus SE?
yessir
is it possible to do this swap to a 2013 focus Se hatch
Yes but you will need to change the hood, headlights, and possibly fenders
@@octanetvchannel Ok thanks
@@spencerevans6455 is that your first cad by any chance?
Spencer Evans how and where did u make adjustments to make the hood and bumper fit correctly
Time for some LS swap lol
Why?
does the ST front bumper fit the Titanium Hatch by any chance?
Yes
Yes they both have identical clips, so it should just fit in
@@Waroffort2584 man no disrespect but this was 2 years ago. i been through 2 more cars since lmao
@Priimacy lmao, you good don't worry. What are those cars you've been though just curious
@@Waroffort2584 2010 chevy Silverado, 2023 Kia Forte GT
Does this work for the 2013 ST?
Yes, though it's gonna cost more because you need the 2015+ hood and headlights
@@Azraels_Envyis that all though? js put the headlights and hood on and the bumper can snap on like any other bumper? if you could pls help answer my question rlly want to make this combo work i think it can look rlly good
@greatness7822 there's a few other bits and pieces you need as well that are attachment points. I'd recommend pulling up an exploded view to see what all you need. To be more specific by "front bumper," I mean the whole front bumper assembly, not just the cover. Meaning all the little grills, foglights, clips, bumper supports, etc as they are not the same between 2015 and 2016. I had planned on swapping my 2013 st to a 2016 rs front end and the total came to be a bit over a grand while using a mix of aftermarket and oem parts. Because ford will charge you $600 for a little piece of plastic. I'd recommend trying to find a car that's been hit in the rear that someone's parting out to get the best price, hope this helps°
Go buy one that's how.
you complain so much its absolutely amazing. it really doesnt take long for you to get tired, this is not a hard job lol relax
Value is still shit compared to a real RS though and it will never czcams.com/video/wkHeR7fTIMg/video.html. Not sure why Ford isn't suing the producer of that Ebay bumper either...You should get the plate PoserRS.
lol chill bro
You got issues man. It's just a look and he changed the badging to an ST. As long as he doesn't put rs badges on its fine
Like you or his could afford an RS bro it’s 46k and not a lot of people can afford that let him be happy with the look of it I think it looks fine and nobody is the wiser
if u want an rs...buy it !
Why?
People get pissy when you up badge cars for some reason. I wanna do the swap on my ST because of the bigger open grill so I can get max air flow to my future intercooler upgrade and utilize the brake cooling ducts by the RS fog lights.
I don’t see why people dislike things like this
Don’t look at it as upbadging. If he’s not trying to call it that car then he’s jusy giving it a more aggressive front end. What’s the matter with that? People do that all the time with a bunch of aftermarket parts.
Yeah if you want to spend 20k extra to get a RS just for a badass bumper🙄 it’s not like he is flexing he just likes the bumper
you should have assembled the entire bumper before putting it back on the car, rookie.
