Hey everyone. I am up in there on what color scheme I want on my 91 Mustang GT. See pic below of the car. I am up in the air between Red with White stripes and Red with Black stripes. Or another scheme?

I want to stay red and I hate flames. Thanks.


A picture of my car for reference.

JaybQuick let me start out by saying that i hate hatches ... but you're car looks amazing so i figured i'd put in my 2 cents. since i love red cars and love the look and stance your car already has ... i think that you should paint your car either a nice deep red metallic pearl (like on the new caddys) or bite the bullet and go with House of Kolor kandy apple red. then do the crystal clear headlights and corner and your car would prob. be the sickest hatch i've seen ... right now zook has my fav. on the board with his clean lx hatch ... but a nice kandy on yours would pop like mad!

Keep it red man. A nice shiny, fresh painted mustang can be spotted from a mile away.

Damn, I'm lovin your car, I just personally despise the colour red. If I were in your shoes, I'd change the colour of red, that way you don't have to paint in the door-jams and under the hood. I would go with the scarlet, such as my car (pic below), the only red colour I like, and just keep it like that, since you don't like painting the ground effects, but I would personally paint the ground effects the stock titanium colour. Almost every Mustang out there has been painted one solid colour at one point, so the stock 2-tone look will give you the unique look, and it looks all so right just my 2.5 cents. Then you can 2-tone the engine, stock ford grey block and heads with valve covers and plenum painted scarlet and lower plenum just glass-beaded (pic below aswell), looks sooo sexy, the picture DOES NOT do it justice.

(Sorry about the old pic, my car doesn't look like that anymore, too lazy to scan a new one, still doesn't have any fenders or front bumper on it though. But she's all repaired and almost running otherwise )

BTW, how much of a drop did you put on your car? I LOVE it. What size wheels & tires?

Check out this site for a few color options:

http://pc.dupont.com/HotHues/webengine/hothues/Controller/Action!_gen_call_5_swapModule?ControllerUtility.sw apModule_Arg1=HowTo

On the right click on "more" under Paint Shop. Then click on "Acknowledge". From there you can play with a few colors.
