TopRank919 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Hey everyone, this past September I had the privelege of purchasing a new to me 2011 Ford Fusion SEL. When it first came out I was definitely in love with it, but I never expected to be able to get one as soon as I did. Unfortunately my last car (1993 Eagle Vision Tsi) had the transmission go out at 46,000 miles(not a typo), which forced my hand into getting a new vehicle, little did I expect this to even be an option for me. I was happy about getting my parents 2001 Jeep Cherokee, then this opportunity came along... But enough sappy backstory, this car is great! It has leather heated seats, heated mirrors, SYNC, steering wheel controls, pretty much everything but a sunroof, NAV, and a spoiler. Its a 4 cylinder car, which is great for gas, but its not as athletic as a 3.0L I tested out. The main reason I joined the forum is to figure out ways to better the performance and appearance of my Fusion, which I've affectionately named "The Predator". Through roaming the site I already plan on: Changing the headlights to HID LED Puddle Lights, Turn signals, Reverse Lights, License Plate Changing the lower turn signal to a clear lens instead of amber Adding a Spoiler Stripping the stock sound system and adding in all new aftermarket products Maybe Plastidip Grill and Tail lights (Smoke color) Ive attached a couple pictures, and Im open to any advice, insight or ideas about how to improve my Fusion. Im mechanically inclined to a certain extent, Im not so great with electrical (working on it)and my experience with a rattle can is pretty good thus far; so most of the work I plan on doing will be performed by yours truly. I look forward to learning as much as possible, Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3 point 5 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 First you should join the fordfusionclub.com... Better info and way more active. As far as mods go you wont make your 2.5 fast but you can make it more fun to drive, handle, and look better. I would start with tint, wheels, Steeda springs, Steeda tune, Steeda intake, and a exhaust. All of those things arent cheap but you will be happy with the results. Hope this helps and welcome to FFF... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
