These lightning blue 350/350Rs are looking good. My only other favorite color 350 out there :D

Honestly, I think my pics are decent but I still say it's not fully capturing the vibrance of the blue. It must be seen in person. The camera simply doesn't have the dynamic range to capture it.

It's pretty awesome in cloudy weather too, turns like a dark, moody blue.

Should send me copies of your pictures to edit to see how it comes out. I'd love to toy around with a lightning blue R. Only if you're interested.

For people that have the LB, how is the color match between the front bumper cover and the hood? I love the color, but some of the pictures I have seen (including the Ford reveal pics in the second post of this thread) show a pretty visible difference in the color.

Well, look at my pics, you be the judge. I haven't noticed any colour difference and neither did the professional installers of my 3M Pro Series and CQuartz Finest. It's a very nice colour and if you haven't seen it in person, you should; it would prolly help you make up your mind. Go on a sunny day.

it is far more noticeable in photos than in person.

This color is definitely hard to photograph - but it is an awesome color!

Anybody noticed that the rear bumper corners (to fenders - facing the rear wheels) the paint is flaked or not there? Definitely have it on both corners on my rear bumper and need to get that looked at...

Really depends on how the lighting is hitting it. The differences in light can make the colors seem like they mismatch but on mine, when close up, there's no noticeable difference.

I was nervous seeing pics of LB before seeing it in person. It's awesome and I don't see any difference between the bumper and the hood. This color does look darker when sun is not directly on it. After seeing it in person you will love it. Everyone that sees this car thinks it's amazing on this car.

Thanks guys. Was a great weekend, sadly it's in storage until April, but it's like getting a new R every April lol
Your car is gorgeous man! I hate to break it to all our fellow GT350/R owners, but the white stripes look so much better than the black stripes :D :D :D

Unless we're talking the matte black stripes on a black car, that's a very close second ;) :ford: :cheers:
