thanks needs wet sand and buffed then striped

1982 niGhTmare · 11-15-2009, 09:16 PM

Turning out great! But I think you missed a spot, there's a crack in the paint

RyKR · 11-15-2009, 09:26 PM

So what color are you going to use for an accent stripe? I have seen similar treatments (black/silver) using red, blue, or orange. I think that they all look cool.

escogt · 11-15-2009, 09:28 PM

Sweet pics. It's looking fantastic!!

(except for the crack)

cjmuscle · 11-15-2009, 09:33 PM

Looks great!

KANARMAN · 11-15-2009, 10:04 PM

Im thinKing a dark grey or a red its getting 85-86 gt seats grey with red piping with 1989 panels that may recieve a red stripe where the grey and black meet.

I may also put the 89 dash in and Quarter windows so I can ditch the crome trim?

They dont exactly fit perfect but they work it takes a little mod to make them work.
The panels are from a 87-93 mustang coupe.

The rear deck lid headliner,doorpanels,quarter glass also 87-93

JTurbo · 11-20-2009, 11:00 PM
