Paint Scheme Grades-April 22, 2023

By David G. Firestone

Ross Chastain #1 Worldwide Express/Unishippers Chevy Camaro-This is actually worse than World Wide Express, the added colors do NOTHING to help, and everything to hinder. F

Austin Cindric #2 Menard’s/Libman Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same B grade.

Kevin Harvick #4 Hunt Brothers/Realtree Ford Mustang-No white, no orange, perfect ratio of black to camo, this is a good scheme that gets an A.

Kyle Busch #8 Mark III Employee Benefits Chevy Camaro-A smooth look with a great color scheme will always earn an A.

JJ Yeley will drive the #15 Isaacson Concrete & Excavating Ford Mustang-Get rid of the white, and this would be a solid A scheme, but with the white, it’s an A-

Chris Buescher #17 Esperion Therapeutics Ford Mustang-Blue replacing beige is a major step up, and if this wasn’t already an A graded scheme, would make it an A scheme.

Christopher Bell #20 DeWalt Power Stack Toyota Camry-First off, I swore that this was a scheme last year, but I was wrong. With that said, the black lightning works, the yellow works, but this just doesn’t. It looks like two different people designed the same scheme. As such, this gets a C.

Christopher Bell #20 SHINGRIX Toyota Camry-Same scheme as #11, same A grade.

Joey Logano #22 Verizon Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Michael McDowell #34 Long John Silver’s Ford Mustang-Same scheme as #38 same C grade.

Paint Scheme Grades-April 15, 2023

By David G. Firestone

Kevin Harvick #4 Busch Light #Break4Busch Ford Mustang-I like the idea, but this isn’t well done. The dirt looks off, and it’s over designed. It’s not awful, so this gets a C.

Ryan Blaney #12 Advance Auto Parts Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Ryan Blaney #12 Menards/Maytag Ford Mustang-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Chase Briscoe #14 Magical Vacation Planner Ford Mustang-I hate picture motifs, and this would be much better without it. With the mosaic, this gets an F.

JJ Yeley #15 Public SQ Ford Mustang-Same scheme as #51, same B+ grade.

AJ Allmendinger #16 Gain Chevy Camaro-Same scheme as last year, same A grade.

Bubba Wallace #23 McDonald’s/Dr. Pepper Toyota Camry-I hate this look, it’s not great, the random white areas are just awful, and I can’t say anything good. F

Justin Haley #31 Tide Chevy Camaro-These new designs are too much. They don’t look good, and it takes a B scheme down to a D, I do like Tide as a car sponsor.

Erik Jones #43 Club Wyndham Chevy Camaro-A smooth look with a great color scheme and earn an A.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. #47 Kroger/Irish Spring Body Wash Chevy Camaro-This is a better look with the cleaned up sides. This goes from a C to a B

Austin Hill #62 Realtree Chevy Camaro-As much as I hate camo, this isn’t bad. The lack of orange helps, and this gets a C.

Anthony Alfredo #78 Dude Wipes Chevy Camaro-I like the look here, the color scheme is good, and the car looks great. A

BJ McLeod #78 GUNK Chevy Camaro-I would like this with smaller logos. The giant GUNK logo is so visually distracting, that it takes an A grade down to a B+
