debating the boss blue vs red

"Ford Engine Blue"

It's classic. But red would look very good, too.

I used Duplicolor (I think) 500* engine enamel. Gloss red for the Z and Ford Engine Blue for the 5.0. It looks good and holds up like OEM.

Red__Zed · 09-18-2011, 03:46 PM

yeah, the blue is classic, but everyone has done it it...red would be different...hm...

Red__Zed · 09-18-2011, 03:51 PM

found a pic of them painted red...not sure how I feel.

But the reason it's popular is because it's good. Red is OK, not as good as the blue, though.

yeah yeah I know...

with the grey, the blue is a no brainer. I think I will have more red accents against the black though.

Forgestar F14s definitely look good on the Mustang. There are a few guys that have them and they are pretty sweet.

FL 4Motion · 09-18-2011, 09:08 PM

I like those wheels. I like that design and also the bronze/gold w/the black car thing too.

Oh, and those springs that M41a.... posted awhile back on that red stang looked like the perfect drop too btw.

Alchemy · 09-18-2011, 09:10 PM

Idk about the gold. Gold on your old Z, yes. I just dont know if the gold goes w a Mustang. I feel like it needs a tougher color. Gunmetal or even my bronze burst would look better IMO.

This is a good point worthy of consideration. Mustang needs to maintain a meaner type of look.

Though with a drop I still think those bronze F14s would look good. Not the norm, but still good.
