Now I get to try and match the paint. Does anyone know where I can look up the color codes? Mine is 63D. Might look nasty on my car, but you should see my roommate's Mustang. Dented and scratched metal. At least mine is plastic and won't rust.

Oh Crap JJ... When did you say the funeral was???

[JJanney]

Eh, I'm not angry. It is kind of ironic. I totally expected at least one ding or scratch while at school all year. The first day of my break, I get scratched by my roommate. Oh well, just another thing to add to my list. I'm going to see if Dan can recommend anything.

I painted mine in the back yard, and it's was three stage paint.. Just get the paint from one of the local Automotive paint shops and some clear, we'll pull it off and tape it off and shoot the bad boy..

God help Joyce if she ever backed into mine and scratched it!! Divorce court here we come!!

Sorry to hear about the damage.

63D is the body code (2-door coupe) ... there should be a two digit code, usually a number and a letter, or two letters, on the line above the one showing the 63D.

JJ... sorry to see the damage. Kind of similar to my passenger mirror now. It seems my garage jumped closer to my car when backing out 2 weeks ago.
Don't know the paint code but you can find on the tag on the drivers door. For example mine is "9L" which is oxford white. Just take that code to an automotive paint supply store. They will mix you up whatever type of paint you want. Yours should be 2-stage basecoat/clearcoat urethane. You will need some 2K primer to go with that. Or if you want just go to one of the chain auto parts stores and get the spray touch up paint. Won't be as good as OEM but will be less time consuming and look ok. It is all a matter of how much time you want to put into it.

P.S. got the MAF... works good thanks

[JJanney]

My paint is Light Titanium CM according to the TCCoA paint codes. I will see what I can find tomorrow when I am out. Perhaps I will get some mixed, but it is such a tiny spot...

Bryan, I was wondering if you had received the MAF. Just remember to clean it too.
