To Paint or what to paint that is the Question!

00GT5spd · July 12th, 2011, 11:21 PM

Alright so im getting close to that time where i decide to paint my new parts (hood and wing) a nice Gloss black, the hood sliver the scoops black and the wing black, or each to match the car (sliver) im so indecisive mostly because its looked this way for almost 2 years now and ive gotten used to it i kinda think it looks sweet with the "black accents" all over the car but i want some opinions from my fellow mustang brothers/sisters

be honest if you want to add in the headlights and tail lights be my gust just looking for some help here.

Thanks everyone!

bulloch27 · July 13th, 2011, 08:27 AM

All silver.

Silver hood, silver wing, blacked out panel, swap out your taillights for stockers, tint them, then beat your euros to death with a baseball bat, then light them on fire, then pee on the ashes. K thanks.

P.S. - add 3.5" exhaust tips too and you will have a sick looking stang bud.

mk1993 · July 13th, 2011, 11:18 AM

yep, all silver and blackout panel with tinted stockers, headlights are alright, also what bangarang said get big tips and your car will be clean

03_StangGuy · July 13th, 2011, 12:28 PM

Is the hood carbon fiber or just black primer? If its carbon Id say leave a lil exposed. Even if its not some black accents would be nice.

haha i planned on putting my stockers back in tinting them and doing a sequential(sp) set up, with the black out deck lid are you talking getting it painted gloss black or flat, or the deck lid insert? as far as beating up my tails i can resell them.. (maybe) hahah i could do a 3' tip but i have flowmasters on it with the flow master tips since those are welded i assume id have to cut them off to achieve this? Thanks for the help/input

Nope, its just the primer black they sent it with same as the wing.

dcook_14 · July 13th, 2011, 02:58 PM

Go all silver with the body parts, tinted stock head/tail lights, blacked out rear panel

freefallin2000 · July 14th, 2011, 12:16 AM

Sell that gay hood, tails, and headlights, get a 2.5" Cowl, and smoked factory headlights and tails. Paint everything silver and lower the bitch please. Mustangs are not meant to have that hood nor anything else you have on it.

To each his own. The hood looks good an will be even better with paint. If its not your style shut your mouth.

Or we could all just build you "ideal" car and have the exact same thing, cuz that would be cool.

Shaun03GT · July 14th, 2011, 01:04 AM

The spoiler needs to be silver in my opinion. The spoiler kind of flows with the car. The hood looks good black.

Need new taillights

People have their own taste. If everyone bought the same shit you plan on doing then what seperates them from other mustangs as far as looks? Keep your opinions to yourself unless your not being a prick about it.

the guy asked for honestly...

all body pieces (hood and spoiler) need to be painted the same color of the car... (Honestly, Id get rid of that hood. Its ugly in my opinion)

Id get some smoked/stock(black housing) headlights instead of those projectors...
Switch those ricer tails for some stock taillights (smoked of blacked out would work)

and possibly get a gloss black decklid panel

Paint all the parts silver, you will not regret it.
