A good buddy of mine has moved out west and has now a business doing professional vehicle wraps. He's talking about coming home in a few weeks to visit, and asked if a few of us would be interested in getting some wraps done on our cars. As much as I like the way my black GT500 looks when it's clean, I really miss my old cars that POP when you look at them, like my previous Oxford White 2014, and my Screaming Yellow 04, and I've always been a fan of Competition Orange. So I've narrowed down three possibilities for a wrap.

1. White
2. Orange
3. Yellow


As much as I hate to spend the money doing a wrap in a factoryish color, I loved how clean my previous white 2014 looked. I miss it so much, so that's why that's my number 1 option. Though if I'm going to wrap it I think I should do something out of the box not offered on these cars, which is why Orange and Yellow are my next choices.

SO, what does SVTP think??

+1 on Orange, you'll never run into another 10+ GT500 that's Orange. Yellow, hell no. Why not look into doing Grabber Green (it's nothing like GTHIG)? There was a Mach 1 posted on here that was painted GG and it looked awesome.
edit here it is.

And IMO the 07-09 Shelbys actually came in Orange and it looked the best out of all the colors. You probably won't run into one of those either they're fairly rare.

Yellow or orange since they are not available color options on the newer GT500's. I voted orange

I do love that color on the 99-04 body, I just dont think it will look that good on the 2014 body. Maybe I'm wrong. Let me try to do that color on my mustang app.

The finish on wraps is like a matte/satin finish right?

While 99% of people go with a satin/matte finish (and I have no idea why) with wraps, they are also available in gloss colors too. The BMW's I posted above are all done with 3m gloss wrap.

If the wrap is the exact same one that is on the BMW, I would go with that and this is from someone who has two orange cars. I really think the yellow pops even more than the orange in those photos. The contrast with the yellow and black wheels is killer.
