    I have a '73 4 door Maverick i am thinking about making interior red and black with gauges lighted red and body painted black. i was wondering how everyone would think this would look with a carbon fiber Cowl hood. if you have any thoughts or suggestions on this i would like the input on it. :)
    Thanks,
    James

    The carbon fiber is pretty much black so it would blend in

    gloss black and c/f look very good together

    Red and black look awesome together, and with the carbon fiber hood I don't think you can go wrong. :thumbs2:

    everything sounds cool to me except I would paint the cf hood black like the rest of the car.

    I can't quite put my finger on it, but I like Red-'n-Black.

    one other question do yall think the cowl hood will look bad on the 4 door Maverick? i've had a few people i've seen about it and they said it wouldn't look good on a 4 door.

    I think you'd have to have an engine to back it up.

    Red and black interior

    Look at the optional interior scheme that is in the new Mustangs. Very cool-looking on a red or a black car.

    A local dealer had one that had this interior in a silver 2005 ... not so hot. That car sat cheap for a long time.
