Paintjob opinions/advice/ideas November 10, 2005, 05:46:17 PM My color of paint for the '86 T-bird has been chosen...Lapis Poly Ford code:M6563ANow I need some help...I've been thinking about putting Boss mustang stripes on it like the picture below. I've also thought of making it 2 tone...like the TC...black on bottom blue on the upper, or should I keep the flames? Anyone else have ideas? Quote Selected
Paintjob opinions/advice/ideas Reply #1 – November 10, 2005, 05:55:50 PM well come up with something to go along with the name of your project. and it will be origional since it is what you named the project plus it would have more meaning. Quote Selected
Paintjob opinions/advice/ideas Reply #2 – November 10, 2005, 06:06:35 PM I think the stripes are cool,but I'd leave the "Boss" off of it.Everyone would immediately think "Mustang" when they saw it(in my own opinion).It would look pretty sinister with the stripes,though. Quote Selected

Paintjob opinions/advice/ideas Reply #11 – November 17, 2005, 09:27:55 PM what i was thinking with the kameilion is depth........ if you look at the stripes when its darker...it'll look like its dented in.........when its light it will look pulled out Quote Selected
