I’d say if your gonna wrap, you need a crazy wrap or if your gonna do a satin color it needs to be like a purple or something different.

I would throw it out there tho, Ford paint fucking sucks, so I promise you when you take that wrap off you will pull off some paint.

personally I would go with the Tune.

So maybe a... Mystichrome paint job? Throwing it back to the Termi days.

This makes me feel weird... like I hate it, but like it at the same time.

if your that proud of your engine bay why not just go full rice and clear hood?

I feel the same way, It's confusing me.

Those engine pictures are normally a hood open and hood closed pictured photoshopped together. Not actually a clear hood.

The mustang look good enough for me , so I only do mod that improve the car performance. Most of my Asian friends drive imports like Honda Civic, accord, old celicas and they all dress up cosmetically. I always tell them all show and no go. They hate me saying that but they know if they try to race me I will gap them. Yes there are imports that are faster than me, but it also cost way more

I own a grey satin wrapped GT and it’s nice for awhile. When it’s time to remove it is when it’s a hassle. A would recommend a good tune pBD is great although I’m Lund tuned either way isn’t a bad option. Best of luck on the choice though.

Tune. No question. Wraps are lame and temporary, and application/de-application will probably hurt your original paint

There is a guy on Instagram that has his EB wrapped in a color that looks like a throwback to the light blue the '67's had with a little metallic to it. Its looks REALLY nice.

Wraps can look nice and all but for $2500+ a pop it's a commitment. It also seems like a trap - when people wrap their cars once they're hooked. After 2 yrs you get bored of the Satin Black. You might start thinking about how your car would look in Fighter Jet gray or Hot Hooker pink. Out another 2-3k with nothing to show for it.

How about stripes instead. Or just the tune.

I've gone back and forth with stripes. I like them, but, to be honest, I think I might feel a bit silly having stripes with not that much power to back it up. Still undecided with that as an option as well.
