SuperSnake08 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Having a hard time liking or visualizing the flat black stripe against the metallic Vista Blue. The samples on the Shelby site show the old Mach blue not vista. Can anyone photo shop this combo so I can see what a Vista Blue SS will look like. I may need to go Grabber.

SuperSnake08 Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 You rang? Did I say Grabber??-LOL. Here's the deal... I am days away from delivery of an 08 Vista Blue but I have since decided I must SS the car. I love the blue but feel that the striping and lettering will look much better on.....you got it- GRABBER ORANGE. details may get lost against the blue. Now that means not taking delivery, risking my deposit and ordering a new car which for many has been a nightmare on these boards. So....I could pay for a new leftover 07. (did 07 have HID??), or shop a deal for an 08 and start over.....or see an accurate representation of the Vista and if I love it move forward.

You are putting a lot on money into your car so for sure get the color combo you want, I also have my favorites but to be honest I have not seen one Shelby that looks bad and as for an SS the thing could be brown and purple and the thing would still look good. ok ok maybe not that combo but the normal color combo's I am sure will look great.

I think Blue Boy (Shelby dude) had a chop job of a Blue SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSnake08 Posted September 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 I think Blue Boy (Shelby dude) had a chop job of a Blue SS. He did send it to me but it still looks like the old Mach blue. I'm hoping to get an accurate representation from somehere if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping to get an accurate representation from somehere if possible. Why not find a picture of a Vista Blue car on this site that you like, and post the link. Then some Photoshop types can play. I've been able to remove an entire hill and see the house behind it, using Photoshop Elements 5. Taking the colour off of a picture that you like, and putting it on the SuperSnake photos, should be relatively easy. Of course, I can say that because I haven't tried...

I took the SuperSnake that Amy posted here: http://www.stangsunleashed.com/forums/inde...st&id=17594 Then I took the blue from the right front quarter, between the wheel well and headlight, from CobraBoy's posted pics (nice colour combo, I really like that): http://www.stangsunleashed.com/forums/inde...=si&img=191 and painted the SuperSnake: Less purple, more blue. Is this what you had in mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the original Shelby photo the area of the hood on the passenger side to the right of the stripe(to the left if you view from the front)has that look. The pix I have seen look like the Mach 1 blue of a couple of years ago and not a great representation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
