Similar view of my HPP. Great color!Just installed the Steeda magnaride springs with FP caster camber plates. Very happy with the look now it’s perfect now.
I've been saying "like candy apple red" since I got my Stang.
Yes. I like to say the Ecoboost HPP/HP is an almost GT PP2 with the Focus RS engine in it. Such a great driving car!
Just don't call it maroon.
100% agree! My favorite candy red color. My Rapid Red is close, but Soul Crystal “glows” in the proper lighting conditions. We have a 2020 CX9 in this color.
LOL... Agreed... Also around here we're FSU fans and their colors are garnet and gold so some people try to call it garnet. I correct them... It ain't garnet and it ain't maroon.
My thoughts exactly.
Soul red crystal metallic from Mazda is a stunning color, these shots were taken after a ceramic coating. I do hear that it is very hard to match when repairs are needed.
I have a deep parking lot scuff on my rear bumper. As the rest of my car is scratch free, this blem is killing me. I went to 5 different body shops for quotes and they all want to pull the bumper and prep it off the car. We all know there is a lot going on with these S550 bumpers. Valances, sensors and such. Prices range from $1200-$1500. When I question the high price, they all said that the three-stage paint, with tinted cc, is challenging and time consuming. At that price, the scratch is going to stay for a while.
The bumper is simple, the sensors are a non-issue. The real complication is matching the 3 stage paint. Ruby Red and Rapid Red have a tinted clear between the base coat and the top clear coat. The thickness of that layer determines the color intensity of the final product so they have to match not only color but layer thickness on a series of test cards before paint is applied. Pain in the ass but oh so beautiful.
