i'm not too sure.. thought i'd ask you guys what you thought...

my car is going into the booth this week... can't decide what color yet..

i'm thinking either white again... or gloss black, with a wide flat black stripe from front of the hood to the top of the trunk... or if not that maybe dsg or something similar?

91 notch..
smoked headlights, cervini's ram air 1.5" hood, 16" cobra r's...
 
DSG foxes are teh sex.

Me personally, my Stang's gonna be murdered-out Rob Dyrdek-style (Satin[flat] Black, with powdercoated-gloss-black Draglites)... somethin to think about.

Also, flat black or white cars tend stay relatively cooler during the summer than gloss black cars.
 
Unles you are going to go to town and paint the inside of the doors, the jambs, under the hatch, under the hood and the entire engine bay....lease it the OEM color.


Nothing lowers value than opening the door on a jet black car to see blue or red jambs.

jambs, trunk, hood and all will be done too... the engine bay will be done at spring break at the same time the motor swap will be done.


and i'm thinking flat black will be sick with one thick or two gloss black stripe(s)... any pics of such?


thanks for the input. i'll post pics after friday!
 
maybe you should go with the new gt500KR black/tungston setup...

edit: not a KR but still
 
If you do white again I suggest painting your moldings white as well. I know most people dissagree with me, but I did it on my car and think that it looks so much better in all-white.

Just my .02

i think its to much white at that point. the black gose with the trim and breaks it up. any other color then body color. white i think needs it to brake it up. silver body color and black trim looks good to. its also cleans it up imo..

you need to paint yours to match man. the white on the trim is soooo much brighter then the rest of the car.
 
It used to be beause I first used a spray can. I have since peeled that off and painted it oxford white like the rest. Its a tad brighter because its not faded, but its the same on the scoop, cowl grille, and the drivers side fender.

When it was spray canned it almost glowed in the dark lol.
