Ford has found inspiration in its past for a new appearance package that launches with the 2026 Mustang. It’s called the FX Pack, and it adds a handful of retro-inspired styling cues straight out of the 1980s to the seventh-generation Mustang.
The FX combines Adriatic Blue Metallic, a new color inspired by the teal available on the third-generation Mustang, and white accents, including the wheels. There are two new rim designs, both finished in Oxford White.

The pack’s standard wheel is a new version of the car’s 19-inch, five-spoke option, which was already available for 2025. The other wheel is offered with the Performance Pack and has a retro design that would look perfect on an original Fox Body. The wheels have white center caps that feature a new FX-specific font inspired by the wordmark found on the 1987-1993 Mustangs.
White accents also wrap around the 5.0-liter and GT badges, while Ford puts an all-white pony in the center of the glass-black grille. Performance Pack cars will also have Oxford White Nostrils, while non-Performance Mustangs will feature Dark Carbonized Gray examples. FX Mustangs will also come with white taillights that look striking against the new blue color.

Inside, Ford continues the 80s vibe with unique perforated leather inserts, incorporating black and white elements that mimic the plaid seats found in Mustangs from that era, playing a great trick on the eyes. Best of all, the inserts are available on the standard buckets and the optional Recaro seats.
Ford uses City Silver and Adriatic Blue stitching throughout the cabin, including the doors, dash, seats, and steering wheel. There’s even a Mustang GT badge on the dash in the FX-specific font.

Also new for the upcoming model year are new seatbelt color options: International Orange, Prime Blue, and Black with a red stripe. They’re available across the Mustang lineup, along with the Adriatic Blue Metallic and Orange Fury Metallic Tricoat, which was last available for 2019.
The white taillights will be available in the Ford Performance Parts catalog, allowing any seventh-gen Mustang owner to add them to their car. Customers will be able to get the FX Package on the GT Premium trim with or without the Performance Package in any body style, with either transmission option.
The order books for the 2026 Mustang will open later this month.
