    they did this on like 3 other threads, bumped the crap out of some of them, and they are actually underage. That was my first calm reply. I got pissed later due to the ignorance of the rules and the disreguard of what I was telling him. Sorry if I seemed harsh, but he literally told me in PM's that he didn't want to read the rules. There's a lot more to the story than you know.

    I understand that, I wasn't talking about him, I was just saying in general to have a tad bit more patience than the average bear, (sorry if there is any bad grammar my cat keeps trying to steal my mouse) with this quarantine b.s., there is going to be a lot of "Bambi" accounts with each day.

    I try to improve my patience everyday (something I actually struggle with bc of an incident as a child around the end of 1999) but this one got to me. He bumped old threads, asked obvious questions, did the "wen relez", and didn't care for the rules, at all. As a human being, I can't handle anything like that, it'll make my blood boil. Again, sorry for flipping my lid.

    Apologies if this is off-topic but what's a "Bambi" account?

    So instead of building multiple body styles, I'm now focussing (ha-ha!) on getting the 3 door hatchback done first.
    Started on the interior again. It hasn't been touched for a looong time and I'm not happy with it. So far I've redone the air vents, tried to create some textures on the dash and used the textures provided by thomatoes50 for the gauges. His completely built dashboard has yet to be implemented correctly (as I didn't have the knowledge back then).

    Anyway, here's a pic to show the very small amount of progress.

    2007 Fiesta is from the time of this focus, so very similar

    Yes I've been thinking about this as well.
    Maybe I'll make a quick meshslap first to check its compatibility.

    Is the mod in question bootleg?

    no, for example, if you download a mod now and the headlights do not work that you can fix that

    Usually, if the headlights don't work, the mod is either outdated/broken or bootleg. You also might need permission from the creator to modify the mod/fix it.

    Well, the general shape of the Vivace seems to be very similar to the Focus. This Jbeam should be able to fit the focus with some adjustments.
    The Vivace is A LOT more complex than the Sunburst JBeam I originally started with though.

    Next step is probably to make a quick meshslap to see how it fits, and adjust it accordingly. Also more work needed on the mesh. A while ago I noticed that all parts on the dev cars are real 3D parts, not a single face (if you get what I mean). Most of the Focus parts (fenders, hood etc.) are only a single face, so that certainly needs updating!

    Sometimes I'm wondering if this thing will ever get finished some day..!

    Well...
