Repaint a pink formally laser red 94 gt. As we know tri-coats arent cheap even with me working at a paint supplier/warehouse. haha Anyways Im thinking of doing the 03/04 cobra redfire metallic on it or possibly switching it to vibrant and/or rio red. Ive googled and searched and found a couple of each. Which would you guys do. Keep in mind im not doing the engine bay etc, I like redfire because it is close to laser red and it wont look as bad as the others listed. Im also selling the car when its done so i want it to be appealing. Ill post pics of the process but I have a cobra hood,bumper, s281, 18" black bullitts that all will be going on it if that factors in your opinion. Thoughts/[ics are appreciated

You could just find a red that is close that way you don't need to do the jams or under hood. This is what one of my coworkers did when he was fixing one to sell.

This ^ you won't want to pull motor if you change color drastically and if you don't it looks welfare just my 2 cents . My car is getting re painted but I'm super anal as you can tell from my build so I painted my engine bay to and all jambs will be getting re done sn95 restoration

My "dream" color would be the Laser red color from my daughter's Cougar (it's close to the Mustang color but not tri-coat) with silver metallic pearl sprayed over the top then cleared

Have not seen it done but in my mind it would be drool worthy
