Default Incorrect PPG Paint Code

For anyone ordering paint from a supplier who uses PPG. Be aware PPG has the code for Sebring Silver incorrectly cross referenced with Siverstone and will likely supply the wrong color.

Looks pretty good to me. I'm going to give your tip a try. I'm puttijng back a ride that was rolled and have a few body parts or different colors to assemble, yellow door, red fender, black fender black mirror, yellow mirror etc, and I want to paint the back surfaces that might be slightly visible after they are assembled . Ultimnately I will have to have the whole car painted. I also have to repair the front and rear bumper covers. Your ride looks pretty good. Whose spoiler and front air dams did you use?

Yes, It looks beter on an S2000 than a Del Sol in my opinion! I had it on my old civic and put it on the "S". I payed $90 originally for it on a spoiler website a few years ago!

Since exhausts for this car don't give substantial gains it's about looks and sound. I took out the resonator on the stock exhaust for a low deep 350Z type hum(not loud at all) and I put 2004 tips on. For just over $100 I got the look and sound I wanted.

The resonators are the big honkers at the end of each exhaust pipe right? So your saying your running a straight pipe from the rear end back and just have new tips on basicly a straight pipe and the sound is not too loud/rough/still mellow?
