Wow looking back I did a lot of questionable things to this car. This was my first car and loved modding it. Even though most of the mods were not all that impressive it was still fun to mess around with. Thank you all for the interest in my "build" (if you can call it that) because it motivated me to keep up with automotive videography and photography. I now work full time and have a lot less time to make videos with my new car (2017 Focus ST). I will continue to make occasional videos on that car and other things as well. Thank you all.
love what you did with this man im in the process of modding my 2012 ford fusion v6 3.0 SEL and this video gave me some ideas. Thanks for the vid man. Hello from canada! P.S. how hard was it to paint interior? i want to do it but i suck at painting lol
what are your ideas? i have the same car & model, i’ve blacked out all chrome & rims. i did tint my break lights but it didn’t go so well so i got rid of that. other then that i’ve straight pipped it, got a k&n air filter. slightly faster and a lot louder. is yours the eco boost too?
So I've been looking everywhere and can't seem to find the Ford emblems in black to fit the fusion. Mostly truck or explorer or newer fusion. Any help with that would be awesome
Hey man I have a 2012 fusion sel with the 3.0 v6, I was wondering how you blacked out the front bottom bumper opening? like where the fogs are? howd you blackout the tails and the maker lights did you just use tint? and where did u get that thule roof rack and does all the trim on the inside just pop off to paint them?
Platidipped all the chrome but I will be slowly changing all of that to vinyl wrap. and the tail lights I taped off in a patter than I wanted then sprayed them with 3-4 coats of nightshade but I will also be wrapping those soon. and yes the trim for the most part pops off. Their should be directions on how to take apart the whole dash online. I will try to find the link and post it here
Love that HE>i decal, I have the same on my Fusion. I really love your taillight design, how'd you do it? I've been wanting to do something besides full blacked out because of laws and safety etc etc. Maybe if you could briefly walk through how you went about getting them like that? Thanks. Also, your Fusion is the best I've seen, thumbs up.
did you do an emblem overlay or did you get completely different emblems? they're hard to find and hard to get the right size, do you have any suggestions?
I want to paint my side markers instead of buying smoke ones. U think it’s illegal. There not turn signals anyway. I wanna black them out really dark black.
Great video. I myself own a 2009 Fusion SEL v6. it will turn 11yrs old still runs great. Seeing what you did makes me want to add to my baby. One question, what do I need to do to make my car sound like yours, exhaust wise?
Hey man i really liked your build and i drive a 2011 fusion sport and i was wondering what exhaust system you use and wether or not it would fit my 3.5 v6
Hey bro so what is the name of that exhaust control valve brand because I want to add that to my fusion but I can’t seem to find one. Now a days everyone is using an actual control to open and close their exhaust and I don’t like that. So if you could please shoot me that info real quick it would be much appreciated.
Hey man what did you do to your rear valence to fit the quad exhaust tips in? I drive a 2012 fusion sport 3.5 and have similar goals as you do. 273 crank horsepower tho :)
Lance Lindsey the i4 Fusion has a single exit duel tip cut out rather than the v6’s duel exit duel tip exhaust so I just used the stock i4 rear valence and traced the cut out of the right side and mirrored it on the left side and cut it with a razor blade. It worked out perfectly honestly. And that’s dope dude! Certainly faster than my slow i4 lol.
Goals Media useful to know. Really impressed by the fusion it's a shame you no longer have it but I'll be using your videos as a reference for a lot of my mods. I'm mostly bone stock except a k&n filter, exhaust work, wheels, slotted and drilled performance brake rotors and painted calipers. Step by step I'll have it a truly unique car. Next up lowering springs.
Hey bro nice car hey quick question I have a 2007 Mercury Milan it's similar as your car only yours is a Ford I want to know where you bought your roof rack I need to find something like that for my it's so hard to find parts for a Mercury
Hey man like the car , i have the v6 se Ford Fusion 2010 , and can you make a video on all the part you have put in it and on it , how did you black out the chrome ?
What did you use to black out the chrome around the lower grill that goes around the whole thing???? The oval looking piece... Thanks! Also, what kind of "persuasion" did you have to do to get that STI Lip to fit good?
Grille is plastidipped (soon to be wrapped in vinyl) and STI lip needs two people and a bit of stretching at the ends. If you drill in one end and then drill in the other end then the middle and fill all the other gaps with screws then your golden (really easy)
i Have a 2012 ford fusion sel & I absolutely hate the front grille. Even in black im not a fan of the 3 bars, but thats all I can find is the bars. Know anywhere where I can get a different look? & what did you use to paint the interior?
I used rustoleum and the only other grille that exists is this one. www.carid.com/2010-ford-fusion-grill/eg-classics-grilles-325213.html?gclid=Cj0KEQjwzZe8BRDguN3cmOr4_dgBEiQAijjVFhy4dUQCdggNabExJX0pcjIY-8N7bdRK_CzsmySlsJcaAgmP8P8HAQ If I got this I would paint it black
Front splitter I got from ebay (06-07 WRX STI splitter) the sideskirts are factory but you can get the fusion sport sideskirts if you want cause they look great and the rear diffuser is also stock I just cut out the second hole on the right side to match the right in order to do my quad tip exhaust
I want to start doing these thing to my mercury milan premier. I already have the grill and rims. Plus mine is probably a lot faster. To bad u dont have the sport model.
Here is how I made my duel exit quad exhaust originally. I just measured the stock side and cut out an identical one on the opposite side. th-cam.com/video/n4jXQ6Hbd6M/w-d-xo.html
Locks1421 oh gosh man I can't remember. I got it years ago. All I know is I got it from autoanything.com and I cut off the extra bar after I put it on.
Technicall there is no kit out for this car but there is a turbo kit for the Ford Focus 2.3l duratec which is the sibling motor to the 2.5l and should fit pretty close with minor customization. I’d talk to fswerks about their focus kit and see if they are willing to help to get their fit a 2.5l fusion.
I have a 2012 Fusion SEL 4-Cylinder and this is about what I'd like to do to mine but I'm a broke highschool kid lmao. If it was a V6 I'd say fuck it and start doing stuff but I like the 4-Cyl's gas mileage lol
I have a 2010 fusion as well. But to be honest I know little to none about tuning it. I want it to definitely be louder and plan on changing the exhaust. Should I first get the intake and see if I'm happy with that?

Hey man quick question i have the same car. What tuner did you use i want to tune my car because its just my forever car for now
@@josephruiz2959 I used MPT to tune mine but I’m not sure if they still do. You may have to email them and ask
@@GoalsMedia thank you, I have the 2011 year.
@@josephruiz2959 I had tuning by james do mine and it def gave me more power when I had the fusion
You outta see the 2010-2012 ford fusion group I’m in. You weren’t and aren’t alone in seeing potential in these cars.
Wow. I've never seen a riced out fusion. Looks good ..
Lol I miss my riced fusion sometimes. It was fun to mess with and was a good first car
great video man, this made me want to start modding my fusion sport
Loving the exhaust valve
Bad ass car, man. Just purchased a 2012 SEL., real nice cars.
is there a way I can get some info on how you did your intake setup would really like to do that to my fusion thanks in advance
Honestly I just went to autozone and got a 45 degree bend pipe and a straight section, and ordered a maf pipe online
Goals Media what type of exhaust do you have on your fusion? I have a 2006 fusion se and I’m looking to buying an exhaust and customize it
It’s awesome to see what you can do with this car, I have the exact same car (just not customized) and I’m probably gonna do some stuff like that :)
how’d it go^^? i’m gonna customize mine to use as a daily driver while i work on my project car for meets
I have it now… lol

So I've been looking everywhere and can't seem to find the Ford emblems in black to fit the fusion. Mostly truck or explorer or newer fusion. Any help with that would be awesome
I have the se model. 2010 fusion with the 6 speed manual. Yea very rare best car I ever had. I’m gone post a video soon on my channel.

I just taped it off in the pattern I wanted then I sprayed it with Nightshade taillight tint
how many coats?
+96RCman 6-7 but I wouldn't do more. Like 9-10 cause I didn't make it dark enough in my opinion
did you do an emblem overlay or did you get completely different emblems? they're hard to find and hard to get the right size, do you have any suggestions?
Dang matching grilles
Can you share links to what your exhaust setup is please? I have a 2011 and like your setup and want to do something similar
th-cam.com/video/cXgJm8Z1Yf8/w-d-xo.html details should be in this video
Nice looking Fusion, dude !
Charleston_Brad thanks!
great vid bro!
Thanks!
Looks really nice great job
Hey can you send me link of where you found the lip and mud flaps and the rack at top please
how hard would it be to remove that middle piece from the bumper ? And could I replace it at a later date? or once it's out its out lol
How do you make it so the tires wont scrape, last time i tried some 19 inch rims with 245/45/19 tires and it did not fit
exhaust 🤩
looks good
It's a really nice car. I also have a fusion but it seems so hard to find parts for it!!
Flaming Charizard! SO TRUE .. it’s like nobody owns them lol or no one makes parts for them
Quason Million
cd3performance
Carid.com
Those are the sites that ive found parts for my fusion.
STICKIEE sweet bruv, thanks !
Seems like the grandmas that own this cars are not into tuning
@@ratedrm1 i felt that one
I’m hella late, but how did you make those sick ass taillights??
Real good looking
Really looks nice👍🏾
Hey man I have the same car but sangria red, I’m working on making it a show car, what upgrades would you recommend?
hey man i have a ford fusion 12 sport and i wanted to get some exhaust on it. anyway i can know how much you paid for yours?
Miguel Estrada I paid about $700 which includes parts (that I ordered my self), piping (provided by the exhaust shop), and labor
How much you end up paying for just for the car no mods or accessory’s
Just bought one looking forward to MOD it like these 👍
I want to paint my side markers instead of buying smoke ones. U think it’s illegal. There not turn signals anyway. I wanna black them out really dark black.

straight pipe it, i went through my local muffler man for $170 and it sounds great & the welds were perfect. make sure it’s stainless steel
Hey man i really liked your build and i drive a 2011 fusion sport and i was wondering what exhaust system you use and wether or not it would fit my 3.5 v6

Hey man like the car , i have the v6 se Ford Fusion 2010 , and can you make a video on all the part you have put in it and on it , how did you black out the chrome ?
Ethan Lackey You could use plastidip, spray paint or vinyl are easy options
Tampa Dashcam okay thank you
Looks alright but nothing actually under the hood. Again, why a fusion?
so how many radiators have you gone through with that big hole in the center of your grill?
I have a grey one my runs fast takes of real fast to also has nice loud speaker
Where did you get that new front bumper
whatd you use on the interior for the red? my chrome stripping is peeling off. want to do some similar stuff to mine
Your taillights are badass ! How did you actually get them tinted like that ?
A lot of painters tape and night shade
yoooo it looks sexy !! good job , I got a 2010 fusion 3.0 black but all stock
Do you have any issues by cutting out the middle of the grille and does your car pass inspection with your exhaust like that?
hi can you tell me what size piping you used for you exhaust im trying to do the same to my fusion
What did you use to black out the chrome around the lower grill that goes around the whole thing???? The oval looking piece... Thanks! Also, what kind of "persuasion" did you have to do to get that STI Lip to fit good?

If I got this I would paint it black
What did you use to blackout the chrome?
What did you do to lower it?
Did you paint the outside of the tail lights or did you remove the lens and paint the inside of the lens ??
Could you let me know where you got your front bumper, back bumper and side skirts??
Front splitter I got from ebay (06-07 WRX STI splitter) the sideskirts are factory but you can get the fusion sport sideskirts if you want cause they look great and the rear diffuser is also stock I just cut out the second hole on the right side to match the right in order to do my quad tip exhaust

I want to start doing these thing to my mercury milan premier. I already have the grill and rims. Plus mine is probably a lot faster. To bad u dont have the sport model.
Yeah bro I got a 2012 Ford fusion I'm trying to make it turbo and more wat all have u done to it I ND help
What brand and what kind of suspension kit does this fusion have?
Nice car man. I'm looking at a 2010 Fusion SE 3.0 and just curious what's the most affordable modification could I start with?
Lowering springs or the front lip (06-07 wrx sti lip) is a good start.
What size pvc did you use for the silencer on the intake
What tune did you put? I would want to do that to my fusion
MPT Tuning. I bought three customizable tunes from them and a handheld tuner
So I want to turbo my 09 ford fusion, do you think it's a bad idea?
What did you use to blackout the side markers ?
Hey i would really appreciate it if you could let me know where you found the rear bumper valance for the quad exhaust tips thanks
Here is how I made my duel exit quad exhaust originally. I just measured the stock side and cut out an identical one on the opposite side.
th-cam.com/video/n4jXQ6Hbd6M/w-d-xo.html
Yoh bruh which exhaust did you use and the type of brand???
I really love the roof rack! Do you have the 58" bars with the 480 feetpack?
Locks1421 oh gosh man I can't remember. I got it years ago. All I know is I got it from autoanything.com and I cut off the extra bar after I put it on.
What airlift kit can I buy for my 2010 Ford Fusion SE bruv ?
what front lip do you have on there, cant find any that look good for my 2012 fusion online
Ben Michael he said a certain wrx lip at the beginning of video 👍🏼
I have a gray one with factory spoiler and thinking of backing out the chrome but don't know how to do it
You can wrap it with auto vinyl or you can plastidip it like I did for a more temporary solution.
Did you have to trim the STI lip when you installed it?
Turbo it or buy a mzr engine and do a 2.5 mzr since you have a good base
liked it
Can you put a turbo on this model?
Technicall there is no kit out for this car but there is a turbo kit for the Ford Focus 2.3l duratec which is the sibling motor to the 2.5l and should fit pretty close with minor customization. I’d talk to fswerks about their focus kit and see if they are willing to help to get their fit a 2.5l fusion.
How did you drop it. ?
How did you put the red on the interior
What’s the point of blacking out the brake lights?
Looks
great looking car, except for the A&M stickers. keep the videos coming. MIZ...
Gig'Em! haha thanks
What are you using to hold onto that sti lip? Did you need to cut any pieces off of it to make it fit?
No cutting just stretching.
where did you get that ford vinyl wrap?
Hey was the front lip a perfect fit? Or did you have to mod it a bit... Looks awesome.
Thanks! and you have to stretch the ends to fit and you can cut out the middle part that sticks out upwards but I didn't do that.
Thanks! My bottom bumper insert got cracked so I might take your idea and remove it completely. Maybe put so rally fog lights in there :)
Ta bonito parabens
any tips on what to do to my fusion?
I have a 2012 Fusion SEL 4-Cylinder and this is about what I'd like to do to mine but I'm a broke highschool kid lmao. If it was a V6 I'd say fuck it and start doing stuff but I like the 4-Cyl's gas mileage lol
what does the deleted silencer do?
link to exhaust ?
love the car bro, do you have a link for that front lip?
Just look up "06-07 WRX STI lip" on eBay and it should be there. I don't have the link sorry.
nimble cars
good speed for the weight.
What does that silencer do?
Any 06-07 WRX sti lip will fit ??
What lowering kit do you have?? Just lowering coils or the coil overs?
I'm on tein s tech springs (2" drop) but I'd like to eventually get coilovers for the stiffness not for the adjustability.
Did u make any modifications to the front diffuser to make it work?
Just have to stretch it from end to end to meet up with the bumper. Easier to install with three people. Two to hold and one to drill
I have a 2010 fusion as well. But to be honest I know little to none about tuning it. I want it to definitely be louder and plan on changing the exhaust. Should I first get the intake and see if I'm happy with that?
Its up to you. The intake will make it louder in the cabin but not much faster or loud outside the car.
+Just a guy with a goal (GOALS) thanks man. What other suggestions would you recommend? I know the intake only adds about 15Hp.
+ItsAviiBro it's adds 15 hp if you have a v8 but not if you have a v6 or i4. Probably adds 3-4 on the i4 and 5-6 on the v6 with out tunes
+ItsAviiBro intakes without tunes really only improve throttle response and make cool noises haha.
How did you do the exhaust ????
