Lovin' it! Great color on a Coug. It should look great all together and trimmed out. Nice work.

I wouldn't blame you if you never drove it in salt ever again.  These cars are getting crushed, destroyed, and thrown away more and more every day.  They're really going to be hard to come by in the next decade or two. 

My 'bird will never see salt again!  The amount of road salt put down is just insane...makes me really hate winter more and more each year!

Looks great. Is there a bit more metal flake in the new paint than the factory paint? It looks good. I've noticed that most modern paints have much more metal flake than the 26 year old stuff on my Thunderbird. It makes it pop more, especially in the sun.

You may be right on there being more metal flake. The pictures really don't do justice to how much it sparkles.
