Thinking About giving the Mach a Custom Paint Job
I love the color of my car, and all. I have been thinking about giving it a custom paint job though. Nothing over the top. Maybe just add a metalflake black from the body line up with ghost Mach 1 logos in the paint. It was just a thought that I had last night. what do you guys think? I'm also going to be getting Black Gloss wheels with an Azure Blue stripe around the lip. I'm going to have some Azure Blue high temp paint mixed up to paint my calipers. I'm also finally going to tint my windows. Please give me your opinions and suggestions. What do you think about a termi decklid and spoiler?

+1 but everyone knows how I feel about the custom painted mach's
![]() If you do it right it could look very nice. I don't know about the wheels I think that blue on the wheels may go over the top.

i think the blue on the wheels would like bad IMO, im not to much of a fan of overdone painjobs on stangs, I like the mach 1s just a solid color with the strips, I think anything else fights the retro look, but thats just my opinion

AB is probably the only color I wouldn't consider doing some sort of paint job to if I had that color Mach. If I did have AB the only thing I would consider doing is making the stripes white, but my HS, undergrad, and the Colts are all the same blue and white so it's kinda in my blood.

IMO if you were to do the metalflake black on the strips of your i would add that characterizes your mach 1 in to a different class and yours and only yours would be like that but if you the "racing strip" down the middle in the metalflake black that would add to the look or dont do that at all and just the strips on the side and on the hood with the ghost Mach 1 logos in the paint would look great but thats just my

A termi decklid and spoiler would be sex man. I hate all of the spoilers on our new edge mustangs except for the termi.

do some thing like that but the black is AB and the red is the metal flake black and that would look sick imo.

The stripe on the wheels would be so thin, that you would only see when the car is parked. I wasn't talking about painting the whole lip blue.
