Diff paint combo Reply #4 – May 12, 2007, 04:17:06 PM I think the charcoal color on the bottom would look good,but I'd leave the mirrors black.Just leave the charcoal on the body,not the other parts.Polish the black plastic mirrors to a high shine and call it good. Quote Selected
Diff paint combo Reply #5 – May 12, 2007, 08:32:11 PM I painted the lower half of my old light sage green '85 T-Bird grey after doing body work to it and it looked great. I also plan on doing the lower half of my white '88 in grey when I paint it. I actually made a thread about it, floating a few ideas a few months ago:http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=12588I think these cars were made for two-tone. Ford must have thought so too, as they did just that with the 87 XR7's (and the Fila). A few simple line drawings of some of my ideas for my car: Quote Selected

Diff paint combo Reply #7 – May 12, 2007, 08:56:38 PM Nope. For that I'd need a time machine (haven't actually painted it yet). I don't have any pics of the '85 either, if that's what you meant - I owned that car back when we had to walk ten miles uphill both ways to get on the internet... Quote Selected
