Post your mustang pics to help the undecided!

I really can't pick which colour to go for. I've noticed that the metallic paint jobs look completely different depending on light.

It would be really helpful if folk could post up some pics of their cars, it will be interesting to see how each compare in our consistently gloomy/cloudy weather, as opposed to pics of 'stangs in the states where the metallic paint really stands out.

Mines Guard Grey (now discontinued)

Most of my pics come out either grey or black but this is closet I can get to the actual colour, which is green.

The car next to it is Magnetic Grey

A couple of pictures of my Guard in the UK. Again, only available now on cancelled orders but I personally wouldn't switch for any other colour. Looks great in the metal.

Don't understand why they discontinued Guard Green, what an awesome colour. Really eager to see how the new Lightning Blue looks in the flesh.

Here is my magnetic with subtle aesthetic modifications:

Lowered on Steeda Ultralite springs & FRPP Dampers (8mm spring spacer in rear)
Steeda front splitter
Ford black pony in grill
Ford chrome pony on rear decklid
Ford 3M matt black mustang side decals
15mm rear eiback spacers
23mm front custom spacers
Corsa sport exhaust
Rear side markers and rear fog light tinted










Subtle but aggressive styling modifications. I have RTR side/rear splitters coming this week, Ford GT350 track spoiler on backorder and MMR FS02 forged wheels coming in June. smile

As you should! Ruby looks a lot more 'candy' red than I thought it would under UK skies, where metallic reds tend to look a bit muddy/burgundy.

Good choice smile

It does in the sunshine but goes a lot duller under cloudy skies. Looks great under street lights too.

Unpc can you post a couple more pics from different angles/lighting. I'm genuinely curious about Ruby Red.

DIB does that as well, if it's raining & grey the paintwork sulks, in the sunshine or cool white artificial light it really comes alive

Not great photos but here's a couple more but all when sunny...




I'll try and get some in a duller light at a later date.
