"fusionator" On The Street! - NefCanuck - 03-25-2009

As for the Sticker on the back I would have chosen a different spot for it looks werid in the middle. I would have thrown it in one of the corners or on the bumper

There was that option but the Fusion, like the Focus it replaced, doesn't really have a clean spot to put your hand when trying to pull down that trunk, esp. in the winter so the sticker also serves as a semi clean place for me to lower the trunk (on the Focus I was using the license plate in the back to lower the trunk)
Some people have said it also serves as a bullseye to other drivers, but god I hope not :ph34r:

You should get Shinzo Werks to create a version of that with out the white circle.
And you said that Fuzion replaced the Focus?? I might just be reading it wrong, but I think it replaced the Tarus and the Tarus Then came back and took over the FiveHundred. Sry for falling off the subject.

to your point though, in Ford's lineup the Focus replaced both the Escort and the Contour ... and the Fusion is analogous to the Contour in the sense that it is between the Focus and the Taurus.

Aww thnx, see I knew I read that wrong.

I personally would put the sticker on the rear window. But using it as a pull down works as well. Can't wait to see it in person.

looks good, I would clean up the chrome front and make it all black, have you looked into painting the inside of the headlights black? That would look dope too. With the tint and all black front, it will look killer. :D

Yeah debating the grill, but that's cash that isn't in the kitty ATM (Between the grill and paint and labour I'm looking at probably $750)
As to the headlights, so far no one has found a way to get Ford OEM front headlights open to paint 'em w/o cracking the lenses :(
But I am debating smoked sidemarkers, though the ebay seller doesn't want to ship to Canada <_<

You can niteshade the grill. I have seem someone do that to an 09 Focus on FF. It looked really good. Almost changed my opinion on the stuff.

I saw the pics, it turned out nice but I don't know how durrable it would be (washin,etc)
Dosn't the SAP Fusion have the dark grill? I'm sure Ken could hook you up.

I saw that too - member BradWhite IIRC (I'm still looking for something to do on my Fusion's grill) but if you read it closely he's only niteshading the oval - not the whole grill - unless there's another thread somewhere.

Yeah BardWhite is correct. He did the whole grill. I think he is the best example of what you can do with Niteshade, properly. His applications are flawless.

Even with my hookup Nathan the prices are incredibly stupid for the SAP grill ... exacerbated by the poor exchange right now ... the SAP upper grill in the US is literally more than 3x the cost of the chrome one ... the difference is almost $200 USD at cost.
To put that into perspective I bought a fine looking aftermarket chrome grill up here at CrossCanada parts for a total of just $100 CAD ... the SAP grill from Ford simply didn't make sense.
