Today the shop ask me to approve the first sprayouts of the color. Rather than rely on pictures, I drove down and saw them in person. The back of the trunk, hood, scoop and trunk access panel were completed including clear coat. Surprise! Looks like candy red. More precisely Ford Red Candy 2 Metallic, code RZ. It's just a bit lighter than #7750, which I'm really happy about. Love the color on #7750. But it looks a little dark if the sun isn't shining or the lights aren't bright. Don't think that will be the case with this color. This shop uses Standox paints and has the full mixing setup. This is a solvent base (not water base) tri-coat. It's going to be amazing. Final guide coat sanding is happening on the body right now. A week from now they are promising all the color and stripes will be done. And then several more days to cut and buff the clearcoat. We're getting there. I snapped these pics about an hour ago. The trunklid and scoop are probably most what it looks like in person. The light is a little funky on the hood.
