I have an '88 Mustang LX and will have it painted in a couple months.

Its white at the moment and needs a paint job to begin with. I would like to change the color. I'm thinking grey at the moment. I've also seen yellow and blue ones that I liked.

If you have time could you post a few pictures to help me choose?

Particularly looking for grey mustangs but, any solid color will be nice.

Thanks ahead of time

Sorry I don't have any pics but I would go with a dark gray. I think that looks the best on it.

Black and dark blue always look good, but if you wanted to be a bit different the dark gray may not be a bad idea. Someone posted a pic of a dark gray notchback a little while ago that was sick.

Sonic Blue.

Of course Performance Red also.

I love the Vibrant Red on my '93.

Nice ride. That thing needs to be slammed a few inches though. If those rims were chrome I would have creamed my pants.

I've never really like the fox body stangs, until I saw a dark gray one at my school(it was stock from what I could tell). It completely changed my mind on foxy bodies, I like them now.

I like the sonic blue.

The hatch foxes are so much sexier.

I think I'll go for dark grey or sonic blue. Leaning towards the blue now unless someone posts an equally awesome picture of a dark grey stang. I saw one quite some time ago in a forum. I think he was wanting to see how much it would sell for. I haven't been able to find it since - looked pretty nice.

Just go sonic blue. You'll be original. Not many SN paint codes out there on foxes.
