There is not really much out there as far as dedicated Fusion kits, since it is a ~12+ year old body style which is no longer produced. As far as the kit you linked to? My opinion...It states it is "...For Ford Fusion UNIVERSAL Fender Flares Extra Wide Body Wheel Arch 4PCS". And it shows another vehicle (an Infiniti coupe) in the photo. That ll adds up to meaning it is not made for the Fusion alone. It is a generic set of fender flares which are not made for a select Fusion fitment. So I would steer well clear of any "UNIVERSAL" kit which does not even show the correct photo representation. Again, my opinion. Let us know how you make out and good luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard good things from fellow Fusion owners about 'universal' parts, I didn't know if these were parts that would be likely to fit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on what type of part is being discussed. In the case of "fender flares", a universal fit is not a good idea, since the fender openings, dimensions, bulge etc are different in every vehicle. A good analogy would be a universal, one size fits all pair of pants (or shoes etc). Not a good idea. However, if you decide to try it, post back and let everyone know how it works out. Keep us updated and good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
