GRABBER BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

My niece's Jeep Wrangler Unlimited in Chief Blue (I believe) is about a shade lighter than Grabber Blue.

I passed a Jeep on the highway, I think it was a 'Sierra Blue' Renegade. It looked just like Grabber Blue. The driver waved back at me, so it obviously wasn't lost on him either.

I think it was this, but I must admit I am not familiar with Jeeps:

Wholy shenanigan's, what size exhaust tips are those!? Nice picture and car too :cheers:

Latest look at the engine bay...

I've been stalking around on the forum for a long time and I was finally able to pull the trigger on a new GT! This is my fifth mustang, so I'm no stranger to these cars but the 6th gen is miles ahead of previous generations. I'm loving it so far

Just purchased at the dealer

Has anyone ever seen grabber blue with stripes in a similar color to the magnetic cars? I was thinking a dark metallic gray would look pretty good.

This is probably a little lighter than you had in mind, almost looks chrome. You might have to squint a little:

Yeah I came across that one on an image search (if you read the forum its in its actually a photoshop), which was what prompted my question. I was thinking GT350 style stripes with dark gray and either black or white pinstripe on the outside.

The pin stripes would set it off well, and you can vary the overlap of the main stripe to assist in making the stripes look straight and parallel, which is rather tricky, particularly going down over the truck lid.

Time to bump the color. My Grabber got new eyes and smile today.

50th lights


Because no one's done it yet, here's how the 50th taillights look with Grabber Blue. I'm happy I swapped!

Nice. I love the AU/EU clear tail lights we get here in Australia. Particularly on my Grabber

Me too. It would be interesting to try chrome surrounds on the clear lenses, if someone produces self-adhesive ones. Didn't realise the anniversary model had them.

I'd wanted a Grabber Blue since I bought my '04 Competition Orange Mach 1. It was between the CO and GB, and I found a CO first.

So, fate intervening - I'd grown tired of my EB (no matter what I said before, I did miss a V8) and I found a '17 GB optioned "almost" like I wanted. So, last week I traded in my Magnetic EB and joined the GB family finally. I'll get better pictures soon, but for now here's a few.

I've already installed the LED rear side markers and my "old" shift knob (that was on before leaving the lot). I also removed the front bracket and ordered plugs. I've ordered the LED interior light kit, I have the switchback bulbs, just waiting for the capacitors to arrive, and I ordered black OEM hood vents.

After that, I will do the Ford Performance Street Pack, and the FP PP2 (not necessarily in that order).
