DobStyle Report post Posted May 22, 2008 I Work for PayPal (eBay) and ran across a hood scoop for a fusion during my daily work, anyone know where I can find pics of what they actually look like when applied? I pick my fusion up on Friday (totaled my focus - see the link below) and I really dig the fusion's style, hell of a step up for me. I want to have a subtle sport look. It will come with the sport appearance package and it's red. Any suggestions, points in the right direction would be stellar. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g66/DobStyle/P1000239.jpg (It's just photo bucket, no seedy bs taking place over here ) I got lucky though - t-boned at 45 MPH, I'm definetly a ford fan after that wreck. Walked away without a scratch, happened on the 18th of this month on my way to an In Flames concert - which I ended up missing (damnit!). Shoot an email, post a message, anything would be cool. Looking forward to posting pics of my new slick ride :) Dobs Ford Fanatic For Life! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mutnat Report post Posted May 22, 2008 Welcome! :) I also made the transition from Focus (2005 ZX4 ST, and before that 2003 ZX3), though fortunately not from an accident, just from end of lease. :) But yeah the Fusion is a beautiful step upward and I love it. Do you have any links to that hood scoop you're talking about? I imagine it will not look good, but I could be wrong. Also post a few pics of your ride when you get a chance. Cheers! EDIT: I just looked at your accident picture, ouch! Were you hurt at all? Also, I just noticed you said you got the SAP--you're going to love it and get nothing but compliments. Trust me. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ozzie Report post Posted May 23, 2008 Focus to Fusion here too! 2001 Focus to 2007 Fusion BUT my Focus is still alive and well, unlike yours. I'm glad you are OK. You getting a SAP in red? Bastard! My wife made me buy an SEL in black. Yes, I said MADE ME, Don't ask. As for scoops and stuff...SAP rocks AS IS... Oz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By all rights I should be dead from that hit. The scoop i was looking at is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FORD-FUSION...sspagenameZWDVW Could be cool, could be lame, i'd need to see some better pics. Flows with the angles of the car which i dig a lot. On the other hand, it looks like a laptop lol. Get my Fusion in 7 hours! Just gotta tint those windows and I'll be set. It's like f-n Christmas lol. And thanks for the replies. Will definetly post pics today! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mutnat Report post Posted May 23, 2008 That acutally doesn't look half bad, but yeah it's too pricey IMHO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xmech2k Report post Posted April 9, 2010 I was gonna bite my tongue, but since you asked: If it's a cosmetic hood scoop, I suggest you save your money for something that actually adds performance to your car, not waste it on something that decreases performance by adding unnecessary weight. Even a 'real' hoodscoop is a joke for a Fusion, but a stick-on? But to each his own. It doesn't matter if it looks cool or not to anyone else here. Do YOU like it?

DJE Report post Posted April 9, 2010 The scoops I've seen on ebay look terrible. I agree with xmech. Spend the dough on performance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
