update:finished it




Would this mustang color look good on a camaro? (Redfire Metallic)

i bought some redfire metallic paint awhile back and just now getting ready to use it.
my camaro is currently bright red. it has a Freedom Design wing and 4" glasstek cowl hood, t-top conversion, may or may not put my wings west ground fx on it.


heres the color
'



i kinda want my z28 to look mean and agressive. will the redfire ruin that? i think my glasstek hood and wing will help with the looks.

i think it would look pretty decent, but i also think there are better shades of red.

I HATE that color with a passion. Among the worst shades of red IMO. It screams "secretary/high school girl" at the top of its lungs IMO.

In some light it almost looks pink. Also doesn't help it seems like 1 out of 4 mustangs I see is that color.

Haha...it looks pink because it fades easily. Every '90s-'0x mustang I've seen in that terrible color looks horrible...especially the painted plastic areas. So basically, from the sail panel forward on ours will look like crap. I guess the plus side would be the Berger panel will eventually matte on it's own, saving some money on that mod.

I don't see anything wrong with it. Especially if you did it right and threw on some type Matte black strips somewhere to break it up a lil bit. Hell I give you props... atleast this guy is thinking outside the box.

I think it's too common of a color to use on your Camaro. Too many Mustangs already have it. I would go with the Red Tint Jewel Coat I would like to see that color on a 4th Gen I think it would look good.
