i took my 2010 49ers football helmet down to him to color match it. the gold looks dead on and so does the red. however the red is a little different than the red on the jersey's.

i know for a fact the red was called "barcelona red" and the gold i don't quite remember but its a flatish metalic gold.

merlot? are you thinking about wine at this hour of the day? its not the weekend quite yet so i'm not there yet.

:goodone:::goodjob:: Looks very nice!

Well... I'm very very happy for you to get to see your car, one BIG step closer to be the car you always dream, standing in front of you like the new master piece you just created.. Believe me, i´m just a step ahead of you with my car and i can tell you all the waiting in your case and all the hard working hours in the car, in my case worth it and double it... So... Enjoy this moment and the all good to come

Another thing... i´m not a Red mustang kind of guy... but yours... i better say... all 71-73 mustangs in red looks soooo agresive but with a fine touch that i just can say wooow... you car is looking beautiful, truly beautiful...

The gold touch fits amazing... gold over red is always a fine combination... I truly don´t know if that stripes colour are a factory stock or not.. i never heard of it but the amazing thing is that if it isnt a factory option you know what?... Mistake for the factory... the combination looks amazing, fits the car perfect and nothing else to say man... Enjoy and be proud of the job you´re acomplishing!
