    Lol! I found a typo right as I was watching the video back when uploading. Too tired to fix it so whatever! Thanks for watching!
    This is my step by step guide on how I got my wing raised just a bit on my 2016 Ford Focus ST. The process is fairly simple and I would suggest you do this with one more person helping to align the wing once everything is in place.
    My DIY Wing Riser is something that I did and is not exactly how anyone should do it...unless of course you want to. There are lots of different ways to create that raised Boomba effect so play around with it for a bit.
    I would love to see pics of your DIY Wing Riser for your Focus ST so follow me on Twitter and Instagram and be sure to tag me in your photos!

    Great video and demonstration! Ran to lowes soon after watching and did it the same way. Couldn't be any happier with the results!

    Thank you! Just installed mine and I love it. Super easy install video

  • @bryanoviedo1778
    @bryanoviedo1778 6 років тому +3

    Yo seriously nice how to. Made my install easy AF. Also I found that if you use foam seal things for like old windows. Kinda like 3m double sided tape but thick. It actually keeps it from rattling when tightened and reduces noise when closing

    Super helpful video. Just did my DIY wing risers today and love it. This video made it super easy, thanks!

    Just went to a ST/RS meet in Illinois and am now looking into doing this because water/soap gets trapped under the wing when washing the car. This would eliminate that problem and keep the hatch cleaner because I won't have that water/soap coming out and drying on the hatch. :)

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому +2

      Ohh man. I didn't even think about that. That's a nice pro for doing this.

    Worked really well, thanks for the video.

  • @heshewombow2000
    @heshewombow2000 5 років тому

    Just did this on mine, looks sick! I don’t get the rattle you got, and I tightened it all down. I used a liberal amount of the rubber spacers so I think that’s why I have no rattle. Even when closing the trunk it doesn’t make noise. Awesome vid man thanks

  • @boosted1578
    @boosted1578 7 років тому

    Awesome bro, the smallest details make the biggest difference, I'm doing this ASAP!

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому

      +Jose Carrasco Still make yours. Would be cool to see how yours differs.

    • @josecarrasco6010
      @josecarrasco6010 7 років тому

      TechNation nah. To lazy to re-do it 😂 I did the same. Exactly the same. Even cut the spacers haha

    • @TechnationXyz

    Just did mine did 1inch spacers, I have a white focus so the spacers look nice with the white, and was able to do the whole thing by myself in about 30 min thanks for the video :)

    Will this work on a fist?🤔

  • @SilverZepp
    @SilverZepp 6 років тому +1

    1 inch mayyyyybe too long. The t20 screw barely went back in. And if you don’t have a shark fin antenna. Then the stock one will scrap the wing when trunk is fully opened.

  • @HH-dg1gq
    @HH-dg1gq 3 роки тому +3

    Would ya recommend doin it on a SE?

    • @karlorre
      @karlorre 3 роки тому

      SE's and Titaniums still look cool, do it.

  • @TheMadian225
    @TheMadian225 7 років тому +1

    So what happens when the tape starts to disintegrate ? I guess the water will seep in. No my way I admit, it may be a cheap way of doing it but at what cost I ask myself.

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому

      TheMadian225, so far everything has held up well.

    I have a normal ford focos 2011, Do you think it is the same work??
    PS: hallo from germany

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  4 роки тому

      That's a good question I'm not exactly sure but I do think it might be the same or very similar.

  • @760lisandro
    @760lisandro 7 років тому

    Are you supposed to be able to push the wing down with your hand just asking feel like I did it wrong

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому +1

      +Lisandro Gomez the back parts of the wing will have a little play when forced. Mine will move with force and when I close the hatch.
      I always close it as light as possible. It's still holding nicely with no issues.

    • @760lisandro
      @760lisandro 7 років тому

      Ok thanks had me worried thanks man and it was an excellent video bro subscribed to you keep up the work

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому

      +Lisandro Gomez Awesome thanks! Been busy the past few weeks. I'll be uploading again soon!

  • @berniesoprano6980
    @berniesoprano6980 7 років тому +14

    Gotta be honest, it looks kind of like it's out of place or broke. Not a fan of it. Nice video and all, but not my cup of tea.

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому +2

      +Jose Martinez I know how you feel. I was like that at first, but after seeing so many photos of the Boomba risers on people's cars I wanted to experiment a bit and luckily ended up liking it.

  • @seanoquendo56
    @seanoquendo56 7 років тому

    looking for a riser for a Honda fit I'm going to try this but I think I gotta get a bracket made for this car I need help

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому +1

      +Sean Oquendo dang. I don't know much about Honda fits. I'll see if I can look around for some more info on how to do it.

    • @seanoquendo56
      @seanoquendo56 7 років тому

      TechNation thanks keep me posted I think I'm gonna incorporate your tutorial with my car worst case scenario it flies off lol I refuse to spend hella money for something I can probably do and wrap to make it official

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому

      Sean Oquendo lol! Yeah I know how you feel. Let me know how it goes, Sean.

    • @seanoquendo56
      @seanoquendo56 7 років тому

      TechNation will do bro boomba is too expensive and for my car it is difficult to find or cause they are considered Honda jazz so it's weird 2013 has 2012 pieces in the states that's where my problem starts lol

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому

      Sean Oquendo ohh wow I didn't know that. How do you like the car? I want to get behind the wheel of one.

    Does it wobble?

    • @TechnationXyz
      @TechnationXyz  7 років тому

      Yes it wobbles slightly when forced. Like if I take my hand and do it, or if I close the hatch hard enough. I don't know if it does it while driving, however.

    • @alexj1523
      @alexj1523 7 років тому

    • @TechnationXyz

  • @danielboxall8496
    @danielboxall8496 5 років тому

    Needs to be a bit higher an d the roof going back as far as it can to the rear spoiler of the focus and fiesta R S / ST every body just makes to how they want but you don't need to do much to them wheels inside to what ever that person wants as long as safe and ford parts

    Me personally I think this looks trash you create a gap just to raise your wing. It looks shitty but that's just my opinion. But that does not mean this isn't a great how to video
