    tell me, is there something wrong with me??? i really love mopar paint schemes. not-so-much the paint colors, but the detail work. i love love their uncommon striping, flat black hoods, and other off the wall detailing. im thinking about pulling out the ol mopar paintbrush and using it on my mav. as far as mavs go it would at least look original.

    Actually, I'm only ribbing ya, although, I'm not a fan of flat black anything. I do like some of the tail stripes they had on the Dart GTS'.

    I like the Mopar schemes on Mopars.

    I think they would look really odd on a Maverick.

    i dont plan on full out copying a mopar scheme, such as turning my maverick into a cuda with diced side stipes. i just wanna take some of the basic design principles and work them into a maverick. the front fender and rear side window c pillar design looks strangely mopar-esque. ill be sure and post a picture when im done. just like you guys always say, 'you should do what makes you happy.' ill be happy.
