2025 Marsh Gray?

[16colt22]

I really like that darkened bronze. I like that it's only a small contrast and only in direct light. Having my 25, I think you made the better choice. Looking into replacing the Marsh grey with DB. I think the contrast with antimatter would look so good.

It is too bad that you are having to look into changing the color on your brand new truck!
That said, I do agree, the darkened bronze is a great color if you are indeed wanting to keep it two-tone.
Have you considered getting a wrap over the marsh gray? I know a lot of folks are going that route with their vehicles no days.

Definitely looking into wrap and paint. It is a large pill to modify a brand new truck.So I'm going to sit on it for a couple of weeks.Try to see many different lighting scenarios. I do think I have figured it out.It doesn't look too bad and low light condition.Mostly because the blue does not show any metal flake and has a deep color that looks good with marsh grey. However as soon as the sun starts to hit it it starts to change color and look too light and flat not matching the metal flake of antimatter in any way let alone the rest of the truck. This picture shows how the color starts to change as the sun hits it.

It's definitely questionable paired with some of the colors... I thought I wasn't going to like it much even under my star white but after I saw it in person, it's not all that bad.

I think Marsh Gray is only tolerable with white.

Definitely NOT with Rapid Red Metallic, Antimatter Blue Metallic, or Carbonized Gray Metallic.

Getting quote to paint the Marsh grey away..

Wild thought, but if it's only the lack of metallic, could you slap it with the middle/sparkle and top/clearcoat layers of tricoat?

Personally, bring back the chrome bumpers in the chrome pkg so the secondary color is only on the body.

mmm, chrome!

Is there anything it can't solve?

Where ford slaps secondary color is about where Devilles had their distinctive chrome siding for decades.

Not my favorite but I can live w/ the grey.

Good thought. I'm no paint guy, but I'll ask if metallic can just be added. Start looking at all options. If I figure out a plan I'll share before and after photos.

Do a clear coat with gold, bronze, and silver flake to change the look of the color.

if that works, let us know how much it comes to!

Looks like a wrap, for only the 2 tone bottom of truck runs about 1200 and only lasts about 5 to 8 years in az. Quote for paint is tricky as there is a warranty component due to small chip from shipping, so getting nice discount with total cost on paint at about 2400. Think I'm going to go with darkened bronze and have it painted. Will be about a month before I can get that scheduled, but will share pictures once marsh grey is gone.

Darkened Bronze is a nice color. I originally preferred Stone Gray (which KR had for years before DB), but I have really warmed to DB. It looks really nice at sunset (golden hour).

I agree.. although zeus bronze could work.

Agreed!

Saw the Marsh Gray on a Star White KR at the San Antonio Rodeo yesterday. - Did not like it, period.

On an F-150, I would consider it, "passable" on the white. Can't see how it works with the remaining color options. Especially compared to my '20 w/ Darkened Bronze.

However, I would like to see it on a Mustang w/ a black accent package.

YMMV...

I think it looks great on the fx4 stx.
