How To CUSTOM Paint Ford Emblems

Custom emblems are a really nice way to add a nice touch to your car without having to worry about ordering new pieces or the fitment in general. Removing the emblem is actually fairly straightforward as is the disassembly. From this point you can customize the colors however you want and this simple project can drastically change the look of your car.

Thank you for this! Just followed your method and applied my blacked-out Ford emblems.

[@cyfirus]

Ayo Dito! Thanks for the shoutout! That metallic Grey looks sick! Keep it up man.

[@DitoCardona]

No problem, and for sure man, thanks!

[@Blessthismessyjessy]

Your videos have been a godsend! Thanks for keeping it simple and detailed for this newbie. 🙃

[@DitoCardona]

No problem, happy to help!

[@ptrck6]

Happy Birthday. Thanks for the shoutout. That emblem color goes great with the car. I’m thinking of a pearl white for mine. My car is the Oxford white

[@DitoCardona]

Thanks so much! That’d be a sweet color combo!

[@everywares6010]

The emblem looks dope. Nice work you two.

[@DitoCardona]

Thank you!

[@brian1114]

Every time I see your videos I get jealous and wish I would have kept my Oxford White Fusion. I hope to see you rolling in Ft. Worth sometime.

[@DitoCardona]

I was just over there 2 weeks ago! It’s bound to happen 👍🏼

[@JkChaotic]

Black on white is🔥

Cool idea. Thank you! Happy Birthday 🎁🎉🎁🎉

2018 Fusion Platinum 2.0EB Here!! Man If Ford Could See How Much We Love Our Ford Fusions/Mondeos & How Much Pride We Put Into Them Then Ford Would Probably Start Back Making A Predecessor Ford The Fusion/Mondeo!🤔💡💡 We Could Probably Afford Another Car But We All Know It Wouldn’t Be A Better Car..👌🏽

[@DitoCardona]

Yeah I feel bad knowing they’re discontinuing it but if anything it’s more reason to appreciate the ones we have

[@dagryffynhobby]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. The overlays I had on peeled off, and I’ve been wanting to custom paint the emblems. Now I know how to do it. So psyched right now,

[@dewydew1]

I like the way you fully remodeled your fusion and you motivated me soo much that I’m about to do the same and today I bought the halo kit with Bluetooth, I have a problem with my driver seat it stopped working and also I just bought a high and low rpm fuel pump sensor because these cars do have issues after a year or two with the car stalling out on you so it was a complicated part to find, but eventually I found it and ordered it , I watched another persons channel about this issue and there are a lot of videos because of that problem

[@DitoCardona]

Happy to motivate you! And glad you got everything sorted out 👍🏼

[@soxsentrick7983]

Yo I just got a 2014 fusion Ecoboost. Your mods are definitely inspiring me to do a few things! Appreciate it

[@DitoCardona]

No problem!

[@HeavyChevy1998]

I’ve had my Fusion for like a year and a half now and I just recently thought to add mods to it. Your car has everything I want to get done to mine!! Amazing content bro I’m definitely subscribing 🤝 keep up the great work

[@mrthumb471]

Definitely doing this to my fusion. Looks awesome

[@Lady_Tism]

I took the front of my 2019 Fusion apart today and it took me four hours just to remove the front bumper and get to the front badge. I wanted to give up several times (like when the wheel well was literally slicing into my arm) but I refused to quit after I'd done so much already. I'm doing the font part purple and the rest black to match my car. :)

[@DitoCardona]

Congrats on the removal! Sounds like it’ll look great!

[@sornptar77]

So do you just pop off the emblem from the outside with the pry tool? I’ve tried checking out the inside trunk fasteners and they aren’t moving. Also trying to pry it off isn’t budging. Oddly enough, floss worked around the emblem with no issue. I’m lost. Do I just give it more force from the outside pry? You made it look extremely easy (and it looks so easy like the back fasteners aren’t there?). Thanks for all the support and vids.

[@DitoCardona]

Yeah if it’s not budging and there’s no extra hardware holding it in position other than the those prongs then it’s gonna be the adhesive. If that’s the case it’d be a good bet to go for a simple pry, if you head the adhesive it should be easier as well 👍🏼

How much you pay for all your fusion parts or could you provide atleast a ball park of all the aftermarket parts you have

Happy birthday man!! Keep doing what your doing 🔥

[@DitoCardona]

Thanks so much!

[@laidbak2904]

I can not explain how crazy this is because I JUST painted my emblem but not like this and it look horrible. This helps a LOT and what glue did you use to glue it back and how?

[@DitoCardona]

Happy to help! And I used a gorilla glue expanding glue, it has a soft spongy feel to it and I chose it because its malleable so it wont mess with any of the alignment

[@rainlove1282]

How did you do the front ones ? What size bits did you use ?

[@donbrashsux]

That looks very cool

[@insaneGeOFF]

Where did you get the headlights?

[@gman0812]

What part of Texas are you in so you can do my emblems? I have a broken hand 😑

[@zombieslayer3369]

Hey guys, I’m having trouble pushing the prongs through in the back side of the emblem any tips

[@NMCC-yq1jm]

Did you ever figure it out?

[@LondonsFinestGamingCrew]

I so wanna do this to my new 2022 focus

[@artsrdz1487]

I love your videos! They are inspiring me to modify my fusion 🫡

[@kyletyra6257]

WHOS VETTE!? I WANNA SEE MORE OF IT!

Those look sick! I'm definitely going to customize my Fusion emblems.

[@DitoCardona]

It's a simple enough project and definitely a big upgrade!

[@vvapshot3155]

Bumper removal video ?

[@StackRunItUp]

What year is the fusion?

[@Nasa-cosmonaut]

Are the tail lights wrapped with tint? Or are they plastic covers? Look great BTW, looking to do some of these mods on my 17

[@v12codeine14]

those are completely different taillights. they are called Porsche style

[@Hiaki1000]

I would just tape everything I can and paint it on the car :D

[@chrhadden]

i dont know what they were thinking with the 2020 grill emblem but it is ugly im going to do this asap

[@01lucerog]

Wow you make it look so easy, but at the same time I know I would mess this is up if I tried it myself. Great content though!

[@DitoCardona]

Thanks man!

[@92vanguard]

Rust-Oleum is better paint and any rattle can paint flows much better if you warm up the cans in water before spraying.

[@isaiahe.5646]

Hey since you gotta fusion I'm having problems with the MyKey and I wanna disable it but I cant find a way to if you know anyway I can deactivate it please let me know

[@sociovibez5177]

[@ajrc8059]

what glue do I use?

[@montp.3214]

So how do you remove the front one?

[@DitoCardona]

It’s pretty straightforward, like I said at 5:44 it’s the same process but you remove the bumper to get access to the hardware

[@montp.3214]

@@DitoCardona appreciate it!!! When I heard you at it in the video it was too late 😂😂😂 Going for it tonight lol. Happy birthday

Where did you get the rear lower valance? I have the 2.0 titanium and I want to do a a quad tip setup but would hate to cut it.

[@NickABwx]

This is awesome, definitely gonna give it a shot on my Fusion!

[@stalliana1922]

how’d you remove the adhesive?

[@DitoCardona]

Honestly just picked at it lol it’s brittle enough to pull off at this point but if you’re having a hard time I’d recommend using some goo-gone

[@flowerchild777]

Very nice

[@ericazavala6825]

How do you do the removal for the front emblem?

You remove the front bumper then it’s the same as the rear!

Where in Texas are you

[@kyletyra6257]

What do you do to afford all this!?

[@TruFire710]

Can those plastic clips break easily ?

[@DitoCardona]

The prongs behind the emblem are pretty solid but the clips used to hold the liner being plastic aren't going to be too big of a deal if you do happen to break them, any auto parts store has replacements for a couple bucks!

[@TheSilentAssassin99]

So overall, how long did it take you to paint it?

[@DitoCardona]

Removal and prep was about 2-3hours, paint was only about an hour going between coats with dry time and whatnot, then I let it dry overnight and reinstalled it in the afternoon which only took a couple minutes

[@Aarin997]

I think if I were you I would probably put garbage bag around the logo and use masking tape and then do it without removing it.

[@DitoCardona]

The thing with that is the prep would’ve been diminished and you wouldn’t be able to separate the colors as easily if you wanted to
