Cactus Gray Color change on B&P for FE?

[Rick Astley]

Folks, the real Cactus Grey has been photographed in the wild, it’s the Fighter Jet Grey on the mustang. It does not look like this. ?

While I doubt the final color will be pastel blue, there is nothing available to the public at this point which verifies CG and FJG will be the same paint process with the same materials.

"NE" is not sufficient to make this statement an altruism. We will know when Ford publishes the paint codes and process out to the paint manufacturers and it flows down to the body-shop databases.

Just configured my FE on B&P for about the 100th time and chose Cactus Gray one more time. THIS time, the color looks much different! At least to me, this looks much more of a blue tint than previous versions. My imagination?

I like it!

that totally looks like some kind of sky blue

There is no fjg on the mustang colorizer.

I swear I saw a paint swatch brochure in a thread 3-4 weeks ago with paint codes.

And I'll all for hoping on the color.

One user ordered a "J-code" touch-up paint. That code is also not in the body shop registry yet and cannot be made.

Ford supplied the code "NE" with their paint and body trim books to dealerships. NE is not a valid paint code used outside of Ford. Unless you're buying that paint from Ford, the code means bumkiss.

What i'm after is the ACTUAL paint code which is what will go on the production vehicle... I've posted this at least a dozen times now, but here it is once again, again, once again again.

my ford salesman said cactus gray and fighter jet gray are the same color. he said the paint chip has both names next to it.

He is correct. They are the same.

Good color comparison of Bronco Sports side by side. I have always tested to have good color vision, lol. I do not see any green in the cactus grey. It’s lighter, almost creamier than Toyota’s cement color though. FWIW, i like it. The Anti-matter looks lighter than it does on the F150. I have no idea why, lol.

There are cactus grey sports on many dealer lots in Texas. The color is grey on grey on grey. No green tints, no blue tints, etc. Just a basic light grey color.
