It makes me think of a HOT WHEELS Car...

but then.... I always liked Hot Wheels Cars!

that's a pretty sweet color... I was very disappointed that Ford didn't originally (well, and still doesn't) offer a deeper green color on the new Stangs...

I love it!!! I went retro classic but I was tempted by a two tone (upper lower differing color scheme); One thing to keep in mind. On this ride the door jambs and decklid and inner trunk all needed to be done in that "Hot Wheels" green. Believe me that's no easy or inexpensive task. Now if you do the hood and upper fenders in a non factory color you really have two choices on the engine compartment. 1) do the engine compartment in the new color; that should be $10 grand. 2) Order a black GT and trim the fenders down in with the new color but leave the engine compartment black; very acceptable and you save the $10 grand. ...oh maybe you could get it done for $9 grand (lol) but could be more if you can even find someone to tackle that nightmare (gotta pull the engine and some components and mask your brains out) But you could pretty readily do two tone, 2 colors of your choice (neither one black) on a black GT and it would be pretty "sick".

Hey torch red: No need to pound your head... look... see where the Foose car has the black? Notice that it comes partly out over the front fenders, and also that the leading edge of the hood is the "lower color" "green". (in your case red) You do the same thing basically.. leave most of your red as is. leave that leading edge of the hood and the nose red (no issue with red engine compartment now). ...and red is correct for trunk now too, as you will leave the rear bumper and back of decklid area red*. Only easy part of door jam, the upper part, needs to be done in black. So you basically have black upper and red lower just like this black upper and green lower (keep all the same profile). Do one thing more though and you'll be the "King". Either 1. or 2. below

1. Where the black meets the red, have a 3/16" silver accent pinstrip (paint; no problem getting someone to do that) Mirrors smooth in black. Striping would be done by hand and they will improve on the black/red edge to make it "purrrfect".

2. Skip over from the black about 3/8" of red, and put a 3/16" black stripe down. This is more edge work and you may find more costly.

I wouldn't fool around with the semigloss black unless you see a sample from the guys who would do the work and you love it. (They could spray up a mock panel if you were really interested.

Either 1. or 2. above you got something noone else has; There will be so many GTs out there as time goes on here, a ton with stripes; a lot in vinyl. ...but you... you will have somthin special. You don't have parchment interior do you? ...cause if you did, well we'd be talking gold metallic (fine) on top not black.

Take a couple aspirin and take your time. Heck what I've suggested here could be less expensive than stripes, cause you haven't had to get into the front and rear bumper covers. (few bucks for the pinstripe, but not that much) *...maybe put a few bucks into tricking out the back of the decklid (80% black with same silver pinstripe; no GT, no lock; smooth man...) OMG what a nasty ride that is... I'm gonna go order another GT and do this (lol). ...Jim
