Thank you thank you! Yup I had to drive up to racine, WI to get my baby. Was totally worth it.

Doing my license plate tonight. Time got away from me yesterday!

I see a fair amount of Focus ST's in the area, but not many FiST's. Interesting..... lol

Bridgport Chicago checking in.

My plates were mounted wrong when I picked up my FiST. They are also crooked... Not sure I want to drill another hole to correct that though.

I used to live in Bridgeport! Normal and 31st. I went to school at IIT so it was convenient living there. I do sometimes miss it!

That sucks! I wouldn't want to drill more holes either.

What gives? Don't really wanna take it to the dealer. Such a pain. Lol.

The rivets need to be drilled out or removed from the back side somehow..

Omg! I lived at Halsted and 31st above the cricket for a summer. Is it still a cricket? I haven't been in a while. We would always watch the police drive from the station to the dunkin and flags their lights lol.
