She is named Victoria and sports a 302 with a C4.
I am planning on painting the mustang soon and am toying with some different ideas. One is that chrome is bad, so to get an idea of what it would look like to have some of the trim blackened out, I bought some black plastidip and sprayed the bumpers, tail lights, tail panel trim, and front fender extensions and hood trim. This stuff is great because it peels right off like vinyl after dry if you dont like it. So what do you think?
My first intuition is that I will integrate the fender extensions and hood trim by either welding them or using filler to make it all look as one piece, then paint it with the body color. Maybe black chrome the bumpers, get the tail lights from Obsidian, and delete the tail panel trim and maybe cut the fuel tank filler neck and have it filled inside the trunk for a smooth look. I will be removing the vinyl top and that trim will be deleted, the the rail panels and exterior window trims will get painted black. Still all up in the air.
