GRABBER BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

[DrDanimalSize]

The weather is finally.. okayish.. It's still pretty dirty. Going on a business trip tomorrow, and plan to order a bunch of stuff to clean it then.

Looks awesome! What rear spoiler is that?

Where are the EU/UK/AU Grabber Blue Mustangs?? There are plenty that have been delivered but haven't seen any on this thread. Would love to see a GT Convertible with PP and EU clear tail lights so I can see what I am patiently waiting for

If you're patient enough to wait till next June, I'll be getting mine then lol. Looking at getting the white pin stripes as well applied.

And my GB should be here end December or early January. Somewhat unusually it's got the Nickel wheels. Generally the accepted wisdom is that grabber goes best with black wheels, but I think it'll look splendid with the silver. Apart from Ford's CGI on the website, I've not seen this combination yet. Not seen grabber IRL either.... Hope I like it......

Here's what a Grabber Blue coupe look like under an (Melbourne) Australian sky, not my car sadly: http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66563

I am in the same situation as you. I saw a couple of Grabber Blue 1970 Mustangs at a Mustang club display, and the colour looked to have a very, very slight hint of green to it. Most of the online pics I have seen of 2017 cars seem more true blue, which I prefer.

I did dislike black wheels with a passion, but I now think they look good on the bright coloured 2017 Mustangs, not dark coloured ones though. I ordered nickel wheels for my Grabber Blue, but I am unsure if they will look better or not. This is the only 'real world' pics I have seen with the correct wheels, albeit in the USA in poor light:

I will be interested to see what GB looks like with the export clear taillights.

Thanks Chris. I've seen the Aussie Grabber from Melbourne on the Oz section. Can't wait to see a Convertible though. If you haven't seen the AU lights yet - there is a UK Grabber Blue Fastback with a pre-delivery video on YouTube and on the forum - he also does a review after the first week and it's basically your set up with black wheels. Cheers!

Many thanks kiwipony. It's good to see how it looks. The taillights match the tone of the wheels at least.

Over the top silver stripes would top the nickel wheels. Can be hard to tell from photos, better with or without the black/nickel wheel combo will be a personal choice. No doubt if you want to swap the wheels with another new owner it wouldn't be a problem. I'm sure you'll stay though with the nickel wheels as owning a mustang is all about making it your own.

Thanks, silver stripes are an interesting option. After scouring the web this is the only image I could find, albeit a 1971 Stang: http://images.buysellsearch.com/image/orig/5d7aba26efaa013664f3caca3b8b6913.jpg

I can't say it overly Grabbs me. I think white stripes are still the go, maybe with black pin stripping. I have experimented on a 1:24 scale Revell model with white and black stripes.

I really like the black stripes with white pin stripping on the grabber blue
