what did you use for touch-up paint?

I picked up a bottle of flat black at AutoZone and it matched perfectly. I can look at the bottle when I get home, but there were only two blacks....gloss and flat.

LS wing & Roush axle backs
 
I'm still working on the paint on the rear wing, must exceed quality of roof paint hence many coats of clear and wet sanding buff etc.

Installed axle backs yesterday on a long lunch break.
I think the sound is very similar to the side exhaust without the restricters in, only meatier, also less out the sides due to less back pressure.

Here's what I learned doing it myself;
1. Put grease on the ears that need to slide thru the rubber hangers, coming off & on the new ones. MUCH EASIER!

2. Don't try to remove the factory clamps to get them out of the way, They are tack welded on.

3. Use a jack to CAREFULLY lift the exhaust pipe in front of the axle up so you can clear the factory mufflers.

Had I known this going in I think one person could do it in 45 min. max.

That's awesome Rick! Finally... By tomorrow evening you'll be forgetting all about the wait! Now just put gas in it 6 times in the first 10 days like I did!

Sweet! And the best color! Glad it's finally here.

Didn't we order our Kona cars around the sane time?!? That was a long wait. Enjoy!

Thanks guys. My original order was input the day the order banks opened on 11/19/10. That car arrived on 3/29/11 but they added $5K ADM so I had to reorder. I knew about the ADM in January. I have four VOC's with my name on them from four different dealers. I'll still believe it when it's parked safely in my garage. ;)
