Post a picture you took today

Not a bad looking wheel but they're not fusion sport wheels. They only made sports from 17-19, they are 19×8 and they have a 14mm wheel stud. The previous generation sport had the 5×4.5 bolt pattern, not sure what size they were. Those look like focus wheels to me but still tons better than they ever made for our cars originally...

Those were the wheels from the 2013-16 Fusion SE/SEL w/ Sport Appearance Package. That package gave you those 18" wheels, a spoiler, fog lights, and leather seats on the non-Titanium models. They are 5x108 with the 63.4mm centerbore and ET55 offset like all the other FWD Ford alloys from this era.

I know this because it was the one option package I did not select on my 2013 FFH SE simply because I wanted cloth seats. I added the fog lights on my own from a scrapyard donor and swapped on a set of FST wheels when the factory Michelins wore out.

I didn't know what type of wheels they were, but I heard somewhere they were fusion sports. I tried to put them on today and they did rub, but they looked good, so now I have to put the spacers on

Crappy matte finish. I guess they don't polish them anymore. Probably depends on the brand.

I've got some fresh exhaust tips sitting in my garage. Been too lazy to find someone to weld them on for me.

You, a master welder, want someone to weld these for you?!

Those don’t look too bad, mine look about the same close up but from a distance they look chrome, and they’re also magnaflow tips(with an older logo). They should be pretty easy to polish to a mirror finish

He’s also a master check writer

I’m a certified “master” weld inspector, not a welder. Having said that, I could weld them on. I just don’t have the equipment. It’s not cost effective for me to buy everything for two tack welds.

Haven’t been accused of that in a while, but yes. I’ve written RobertP a lot of checks over the years for work on my car. Guilty as charged.

It’s ok, I guess I should come clean, I wrote a check to have my exhaust welded too… that’s right, I didn’t make these welds with my harbor freight flux core
