Need your opinions.... I want a different color than the "norm"...

[Chris06GT]

I am wanting to paint my car something different.. Since the whole front end is being fixed, we are going to paint the entire car after the cage is done. So, what do you guys think of this color?

This is PPG Light Candy Rootbeer with a black/violet base...



Opinions?

Looks nice. I think my new favorite Mustang color is lava red.

That color actually came up. Just too many reds around here. lol

Candy root beer has always been one of my favorites but on a S197 I don't think it would work. IMO,that color is made for the old schools or Lowriders pre 88. How about that kandy tangelo? I've seen that tangelo on a 66 Mustang and it looked sick!

That color was a little too bright for my taste. I did consider the "Brandywine Candy"...

2 colors I hate on cars personaly, red and brown. But its your car if you like it do it.

I think it will look like a fast shiny piece of poop...

Brandywine is another hood rich color. Belongs on a cadillac. I is a amazing looking color but on a Mustang.......meh.

I like it.

and this

 

[RED09GT]

I like it as well.

Maybe a red base to make it a bit more orange just to keep people from making the brown and poo connection?

Lava Red isn't really even red! It's more of a purple color. If I ever get a 5.0, I'll be on the hunt for one of the less-than-600 Lava Red 5.0 cars.

 

[Chris06GT]

Anyone know what color that is on the one GallopingFord posted?

Owner Joey Redmond tells us the color is actually a Gold Bronze from BASF, also available as an option on the 2013 Ford F-250.

I like it. But do what you like, not what we all do/don't.

Not too crazy about that color on a newer car. If it was mine I'd paint it grabber green.

 

[RocketcarX]

some color of Metallic with a flat clear. I saw a hunter green car with the matte finish clear coat, the silver flake in it popped hard in the sun and was subdued at night.
Mine is a sort of metallic charcoal grey with a flat clear, Ford Tuxedo black on the striping and blackout panel.

Well I think the car makes the color. Having been a fan of modified cars all my life... It is amazing how many times I would think there is no way I would want one color or another... Just to see that color on a car and go.. Huh... That is sick!

Personally... While a bitch to keep clean... One day I am going with Black Cherry Pearl or metalic...

Here is a photo that shows Lava Red pretty well, I think.

Kinda dull IMO... and if it's dirty, it looks like just another black Mustang. No offense meant to any LR owners.
