The Bullitt Fusion, enjoy! Ha!

My in-laws bought a new 2010 Fusion last fall. It's a nice car, good color, spoiler, gets good mpg, but the thing that got me was that the car had hubcaps....what cars still have plastic hubcaps these days??

Well I remedied that this weekend. I found a set of new take-off 17-inch Mustang Bullitt-style wheels and tires on Craigslist down in South Austin and went and got them Saturday night, and my sister-in-law took them back to Dallas with her yesterday.

I was planning on putting them on for my father-in-law next weekend when we're up in Dallas for Cars and Coffee, but he couldn't wait when he saw them. He LOVES them.

My mother-in-law just sent me a pic taken this morning.

Before pic, this was taken last Thanksgiving when the car was brand new.


After pic, taken this morning.


Don't see too may Fusions with Bullitt-style Mustang mags. I really like them! Ha!

I don't think it could look better. My friend has an identical one that at least has factory wheels, but I prefer what you guys did. Its cool that they have the Ford logo instead of the running pony like the earlier ones.

Nice !!!

That's cool!

P.S., most GM cars have plastic hubcaps still, just sayin.

Not my GM cars. ;D

I'm surprised that the off set was correct. Front wheel drive vs. rear wheel.

That does look good

The low tire pressure warning light is on. That's the only issue they've had. The stock Fusion wheels have the sensors in the wheels, and the only way to get the light off is to dismount all four tires and transfer the sensors from the Fusion wheels to the Mustang wheels. My father in law has not done that yet.

Other than that they still love these wheels, and it drives perfect. Such fun!
