If you plan to paint it after the fact, I would not worry. You can get ANY color done after the fact. It might not be called "Antimatter" but there will be TONS Of similar options. Just find a good paint shop. They'll have lots of options for you, not only blue but others with a similar appearance.


Let's also take a moment for one of the coolest colors. RIP Antimatter blue.

Ohh i'm not sure. But i've seen some ads in Queens, NY for like $199 so not much!

In all honesty, I'd probably GUESS maybe $3k - $5k for a good paint job???

I'll find out Thursday if AMB is toast... Probably go with white if pushed to a '22...

You don’t really want to do a color change on a brand new rig! 3-5k for a flake paint job still leaves the door jambs, roll bar, under hood, firewall all unpainted. It’s all in the details and that budget likely won’t cover those details. It’ll look like garbage. Just pick Black or grey and wrap it with vinyl for that price. I’m sure they’ve got vinyl with similar color changing properties. Then later you can just peel it.

On a brand new rig for a quality paint job I'd venture probably 5 to 10k

You had better multiply that number by a factor of 3 for a reputable shop and top quality. If you want it changed cheaply go to MAACO or some other low buck joint.

I feel ya. In the same boat here. Of all the shitty things Ford pulled on its customers, and there have been plenty (jacking up the price on Sasquatch, bumping 2-doors to MY22, etc.) pulling RR and AMB ranks up there at the top as the shittiest. I can't believe I'm going to be shelling out this kind of money for a truck in a color I don't want after a year of being excited for a color I love. I'd hate to be a PR person over there...How do they deal with explaining away all the bad decisions that have been made and/or approved by senior management?

End rant. I guess I'm still not over it.

My Vin'd 21 is AMB. I'll be pissed if this doesn't happen.
I feel Ford should have allowed MY21's that change into 22's the exact same as they ordered it.
Feel for you OP.

I'd put it in that range also for a simple exterior-only scuff and shoot. Supplies alone could be $2k, paint is expensive!
Additional labor to shoot everything.... jambs, rollbar, engine compartment, could add a grand or two.
A wrap job is still a couple grand.

Brutal decision. It’s about $$$ not customer loyalty when you pull moves like this
