i'v found that super red II import autospray paint by Dupli-color is a prefect match for red MX-3's and tape off a square around where you spray paint, other wise you'll screw up the clear coat like i did on my hood and if you do the same with the clear coat auto spray it should look alright.

Get a Claybar to get rid of any overspray you might end up with. Comes off like magic!

Thats the least of my worries right now. I got in a wreck myself the other day, I was rearended but a brand new misubishi eclipse GS and she sent me into a dodge intrepid in front of me and she got rearended by a dodge stelth twin turbo. she really messed up the back of my car and my hood is all bent up. The insurance comp. totaled it and they are supposed to come look at it tommarow and tell me how much they will give me for it.<BR>I'm looking for a new MX-3 but don't know if i will be able to find one for what they are going to give me for my car because of the high miles i put on it.
<P>Thanks for the tip<BR>Richard
