New Paint Job, What do you think?

[sstlaure]

I don't mind. I've pretty much decided what I'm going to do. I'll think on it for a month or so and then get started. I think I'm going to go with the Ford Blue and Silver like we discussed already. I actually like the darker grey a little more but the silver will work better at hiding the ripples and dings in the body as they occur. Here are the latest pics including a shot from the front. (I changed the side shot based on what I saw up front while I was playing with the colors) I.E. The hood looks terrible with the scoop a different color than the rest so I went with solid silver instead. I also tried blue in the center section of the grill and it just didn't look right to me.

Looks great, but FYI..the Satin Silver is going to be more of a shade like what is on that Camaro in the front shot (It's a very bright silver.)

I was thinking that you could split the grille into (2) colors (blue top/silver bottom) with the split line matching the body line coming around the fender. Then have a blue hood. Just an idea. (This is why I'm going 1 color top to bottom, so that I don't have to choose which color goes where.)

The Camaro is white. (It was dusk when I took the front shot) I've been keping my eyes peeled and may just run out to the Ford dealership to get a close look at the colors. My neighbor has an F150 or F250 that looks like it is the same silver or at least close that I may go with as well. (I'll probably run over there in the next few days and get the code from it)

I couldn't tell if it was white or silver, the grey in your photochop is closer to the Steel Grey Metallic than the Silver. (At least on my screen...I guess my colors could be messed up and we're seeing 2 different things.) The Silver on the F-150 is very close to the Satin Silver on the Mustang (It may even be the same color, I'll do some digging with my Studio contacts to see if they are the same.)

So as not to completely hi-jack this thread, here are the color codes for Saddleup as well....

Legend Lime - P1 (Might be PI, tough to read the label)
Steel Grey Metallic (Mazda) - 26
Satin Silver Metallic (Ford) - TL
Sonic Blue/Lapis Blue (Ford/Mazda) - SN (Ford), 25 (Mazda) Same color

Thanks for getting those, Scott.

SaddleUp, I like the blue and grey (I agree darker is better to hide the "ripples")
