Have you ever looked at the House of Kolors true blue? There has been a hatch up at the columbus swap meet the past two years, that is painted that color, and it looks really good IMO. I wish he would have painted the mouldings blue as well. I do agree that you should paint the car some shade of blue though.

Looks good!! I wouldn't put a hood or wing on it though. Sometimes simple and clean is the best way to go.;)

thats what i am looking for. If it gets any type of wing it would be one from the 92, 93 limited edition verts. If it got a hood it would be a small cowl like a 1.5" 2.5" at the most but i want to get it painted, interior finished, and 5 lug swap done first. Only problem i can see having is finding a nice used set of them cobra wheels. I dont see to many of them for sale on the forums.

Looks pretty good. I'd put a Saleen front valance on it and call it a day.

not a chance. Im really not a fan of just doing the front bumper and leaving the rest alone. There are only two cars that ive seen pull it off..your coupe and 25th's stang...On a vert i think it would make the front end stand out a little to much. plus i would never make it up my driveway lol.

plain and simple but why paint car twice if you do plan on putting a hood and a wing on it later down the road i mean i am going to put the 3 inch single cowl with svo opening and a saleen wing on my vert and it going white with a blue peral and havent decided about 5 lug. but the point im saying is why paint car twice because the wing and hood probley wont match if you paint them at a later date

that's why i would be buying more paint then i would need...this way it will match...its not a plan yet. its just something ive thought of doing but cant justify spending that much on a steel cowl right now when i have other things that the money can go towards.

it is a good plan but paint does go bad over time and i was talking about sun fade and stuff like that were it wouldnt much and i would put a fiberglass hood on it
i might have a contact on them wheels let me make a call but 400 is cheap for a set of 17 inch cobra rims you want the inserts painted black or does it matter

Whatever makes you happy, just do it! Its only paint and wheels, it can be changed later in life.
