Arrow Pre-Painted Parts Now Available

Pre-Painted trim parts are cleaned, prepped, and painted before you order, so they are ready to ship the moment you order, at a price that can't be beat.
Shop Pre-Painted Mustang Trim Parts Now!


Painted trim parts are one of the best ways to make your Mustang stand out in a crowd. Buying the parts and taking them down to the local body shop on the other hand, can be a major drain on your time and your wallet. Now AmericanMuscle.com is making these upgrades easier and more affordable than ever, thanks to its new state-of-the-art paint facility.

Using exclusively Ford OEM colors, AmericanMuscle’s master painting technicians have developed a 14-step process that delivers superior shine and durability in every painted part. Best of all, because AmericanMuscle is painting your part ahead of time, ALL PARTS SHIP THE SAME DAY at a price far less than having it done at your local body shop.

Better: And OEM-spec facility and 14-point painting system ensure only the highest quality.
Faster: Pre-painted parts are always in stock and ship the same day you order.
More Affordable: AmericanMuscle buys in bulk and paints in bulk, producing better parts for less $$$.

The Parts
The list of pre-painted Mustang parts that will launch on October 26 reads like a greatest hits playlist. Many of AmericanMuscle’s top sellers will be prepped and painted in all 19 OEM Mustang colors.

• Headlight Splitters
• Mirror Covers
• Hood Scoops
• Chin Spoilers
• Window Louvers
• Side Scoops



The Booth

The AmericanMuscle paint booth is nothing less than state of the art, designed and built by Global Finishing Solutions, the exclusive supplier to all OEM-endorsed paint shops. The booth at AmericanMuscle is a fully-loaded GFS system that employs numerous innovative technologies to produce a highly efficient, clean room environment and a minimal carbon footprint. The foundation for this eco-friendly program is the next-generation water-base paint that exceeds the quality and durability of traditional toxic solvent-base paints.

Using a semi-downdraft system, the paint booth achieves optimal painting conditions by shooting air down from the ceiling to evenly coat the painting surface. This method, combined with air-powered Sata paint guns, provides an optimal formula for finished product that surpasses even OEM factory standards, not to mention a local paint shop.

To get the full story on the AmericanMuscle paint booth, check out the AmericanMuscle Blog. And for more information on ready-to-ship pre-painted parts, visit AmericanMuscle.com.

Are those the only parts that will be pre-painted or will there be an option later on for ANY part you guys offer to be painted?

We will be painting more parts in the future. Since we're painting every part in all 19 Ford colors, starting with six meant adding 114 new parts to our catalog.

Moving forward we will add more part numbers and cover more years. Feedback on what you would like to see painted next is definitely welcome and appreciated. Still up in the air about paint-to-order parts.

I'd love to see American Muscle expand into New Edge Mustangs. I'd definitely buy a pre-painted 01 Cobra bumper cover.

Yup, we would love to also! But there are still some issues to be worked out for selling pre-painted parts to older generation Mustangs. Since your cars have been around longer they have been exposed to UV sun radiation, environmental contaminants, brake dust, road salt, etc. that all can either cause fading or staining of your paint. We are working diligently on a solution, it is definitely our intention to eventually offer all of our parts painted. We just won't release a product until we come up with a satisfactory solution, so you can rest assured you are receiving a quality part when we do start selling them.

Well maybe for an additional fee you could have customers ship a small from part off their car to you directly (like the faux hood scoop or something), so an accurate color match could be had.

Or possibly offer a pre painted sample of something, so a person could hold it up against the car to see how close it is to the original paint.

I dunno, maybe those ideas are too time consuming, haha.

Yeah, I really don't know. I'm personally not a paint expert...but we have our professionals working on a solution, so I am sure they will come up with the best possible solution.
