Default 2 colors 1 choice

ok ok so i've been going between 2 different color ideas for my mustang for ages now and time is running out. I want to make a final decision. I want to know which YOU think will look better. I think both of these colors are totally badass, but I want some others opinions.

It's between Nightmist Blue with 2 white lemans stripes, or Raven Black with 2 white lemans stripes. I dont want to hear that black and dark colors are hard to keep clean and blemish free. I just want to know your plain and simple answer as to which color would look more bada$$.

I want the "Stay outta my way or I'm going to bust your face" kinda look... if you know what i mean



Oh also I'm getting 20% tinted windows and I'm going to be running Flow 44's to make one MEAN growl.

Black is a hard color to pull off because the body has to be 100% perfect. Not sure if this would apply to the blue as well. That is a tough decision though. I do think black with the white stripes is great, yet somewhat overdone on most cars.

Have someone Photoshop your car with both colors and with stripes. Might make it easier to choose.

blue during day and black in the shadow/night..... you'll have both when you take the first optiojn .

as towards photoshop. take a nightmist blue car, then take out the blue or convert to gray, that should do, it's much easier then starting to replace colours

Nightmist Blue is an awesome color I want my 67fb to eventually be painted a darker version of that color.

IMHO Dark blue looks great. Plenty of black Mustangs out there.
