What are some mods you recommend, if any, to get done to your car?
You got a basic Fusion. Do the maintenance and take care of it without slapping on all the Temu stickers.

Buying a higher trim would be a better choice than spending money to slap on mods.

Should’ve gotten the sport.
The honeycomb front grille is a nice mod!

It’ll look nice, but please don’t try to race the sport variants. It’s just cosmetic.

I’ve beat a sport owner in a baseline; for granted, I cheated by telling the dude he had overboost and he blew his engine, but I still won.

As a sport owner and a previous Titanium owner, I can agree lol the sport is much faster!
@Hadden
I’m not wanting to put down this new owner. Just trying to share that bolt-ons aren’t going to increase power. Also, he needs to restrain from bigger wheels if they weigh more than his OEMs. That reduces HP.
@Dru
Increases the rolling resistance if oversized tires, adds weight if heavier wheels, none of which reduce the horsepower of the engine.

That would help, a lot.

You don’t have to do any of this. I will say, however, that it’s your ride, your tastes are your own, definitely have pride in your work, as well as enjoy the work you put into it. People can be harsh, but remember it’s your car, your money, and your happiness.
Fusion family brother,
Take care.
These dang kids these days with the mods. The car is nice enough stock… I remember my first car. Yes, I modded the shit out of it and was pulled over 254 times within the first 3 months. Dudes with real sports cars would pull up to me talking smack. At 19 years old, I thought I was cool, but soon I realized I was just a chump.

You are a chump; I’m not.

Are you 16-20 years old? Yes, you are a chump if you want to mod out a family man 4-door sedan! Buy a Challenger if you wanna look cool.
@Paxton
No, I’m not 16-20. Good try though.

I’ll race you in my stock Fusion vs your mod one. We’ll see who wins. I’m in SoCal as well. Just let me know… We can have a burnout contest on Beach Blvd and Lincoln over by Knotts. Haha.
