Default JET BLACK OR MIDNIGHT BLUE

Hello I did all the body work 2 my fox and i have it in grey primer now , I actually drove it in primer last year and it will probly be in primer this year till i save up the money for a paint job. I smoothed in the front ford emblem and also shaved the back hatch lock. Ive been thinking about shaving the door handles also, but really not sure how it looks on a fox. What do u think paint it jet black or midnight blue. AND i do know that if ur going with a dark color that body better be damn straight! Thanks My car is a 88gt with a 2"cowl hood with clear front headlights with the stock tallights.

im a jet black kind of guy. thats the color im going with in the next couple of weeks. dont drive with primer too long. it holds moisture and can cause rust problems, that is if its not sealed.

I've owned 4 black cars (including my Mustang) and only intentionally bought 1 black car... Black is a nightmare for any sort of dirt or scratches, even light scratches. Even on a nice day it will be dusty and look dirty after a cruise.

I love black cars, but if you plan to drive it often at all, go blue. You'll be happier with it.
