These look awesome! Great way to hide the bad look of the calipers when the start to age. I may just look into this!

That's bass ass looking!! I thought about painting mine, but those look better.

I just sent an email asking a few questions about size fittment. As soon as I hear something back, I'll let y'all know what I was told.

I had sent an Email and got a reply yesterday.  all they said was Large for the front. nothing about the rear.

Here's his reply....(and rather quickly)

Hi,

We recommended the large one for your 2006 Ford Fusion.

You can see the "Fitment" on the product page that our caliper covers
required 3 steps which is
1. 17" wheel
2. 1.5 inch between wheel and caliper
3. 1.5 inch (depth) between wheel and caliper

We will launch the "Type R" version within a month. It is more universal and
required only one thing which is 16" wheel. So, I will keep you email in
record and will notify you when it is launch.

Anyway, it is up to you. You can take the large one or wait for type R.

Seeing as I'm going to go with larger rims in the future, I'll wait to get mine.

he does reply quickly.  seems like there must be someone there 24/7.  in my last reply from him he mentioned heat so it makes me wonder if there could be a heating problem since it is a cover.  he mentioned how he had just answered probably your lette.r

Just let you know that I just reply the questions to one of the member from Ford fusion webboard. After I look at the actual Fusion’s wheel and caliper, I think you should wait for type r because it is more universal and have more room. This helps and protects your original brake caliper from the heating.

there is an install video now.  have you seen it?  looks like it would be just as easy to paint what you have, no clearance problems to worry about that way.  there was no sound on my computer,  looks like it needed to be cut and trimmed also.

looks ok,  I want that kinda look for mine, but I want to go yellow.  my fav color.

 

[Rut]

They are really glossy so they didn't take picture to well. Will try for some better picture later. I had yellow on my last car on loved it! I have always like the red breaks on a white car though. I would diffently recomend thought use the Caliper Paint. ABout 45 minutes per break and no problems. Just need to have time to paint it on and let them dry good.

They have yellow, red, blue and I believe sliver color avaible from Dupli-color

I put red on my Tungsten Silver Fusion. It was really easy and for $15, hard to beat. My concern with the Eyecatcher covers, is that they look like they belong on a Porsche or Ferrari. Now I like my Fusion, but it's no Porsche or Ferrari.
