What color should I go with?


I can't decide on what color to paint my 89 GT hatch and should i repaint the mirrors and door handles black or should I color-match them?

I want a different color everyday, but paint day is coming up, I'm going crazy.............I guess if this is the hardest part of my life I'm doing pretty good.

atlantic blue, for obvious reasons. but I like white also. if you want to see what yours will look like atl. blue just check my pics out. I also think it looks a lot better if you leave the handles & window trim, etc. black, jmo

I don't care what color you paint the rest of the car, but if you paint the mirrors and trim anything other than trim black, I'll come over there and slap you.

I like black with tinted windows. Also dark blue. Keep the trim black, but the mirrors and handles may look good either way if you choose a dark color.

That's not a fox, so it doesn't look bad that way, but foxes look like a mistake with the window trim and mirrors painted to match.

In the mid 90s I remember reading a chevy magazine that stated " don't race black mustangs" That stuck in my mind ever since.
