I've done some upgrades to my Escape recently...100% synthetic engine oil, K&N panel filter, and my new Bridgestone tires.

What's next for you and your car? 

I'm going to put either HID lighting on my Escape, or I'm going to get the Magnaflow exhaust they have for them.  I was looking at getting some headers (and yes, there are a couple of companies that make them for the 3.0L in the 01-07 models), but I think they would be too loud.  I think that the Magnaflow will be good enough, and it will actually make 'scape sound more like a Taurus SHO or SVT Contour...

In terms of what's next, I'm definitely looking at a bodykit, 3D Carbon makes a nice one (Not too over the top, but it does tidy up the car nicely)

Also looking at deleting the chrome on the front end, but here I'm not sure which way I want to go, either buying the SAP grille parts and installing those, or getting another stock Fusion grille and having it painted body colour. Right now leaning towards the SAP grille option because even paying for the install it would be cheaper and less costly to maintain than the painted grille)

Wheels are also high on my list, I want black wheels to go with the car (I'll likely stick to 17"s, I like my ride comfort too much :P)

I want to do an exhaust, but this is another tricky ara, no one does the AWD exhaust at all. If I get something done it would have to be custom made and I'd probably hit up MBRP and pay them to do it as the MBRP sound is something I really miss from the Focus.

Get all that done and then short of somehow shoehorning a 427 motor in there I'm done :P :D
