you'd be better off having it powder coated - the paint will chip with all the road debris (even with light to moderate driving)...

If you dont mind driving to East Anaheim (near 91 & 55), call Mike Kent @ Nu Tech: 714-632-5045... he has a bazillion color chips to look at and match up to your specific blue - and if he doesnt have the right sample color, show him your bay and I bet he can order the right color.

I havent used him in while (had several things pc'd by him in the distant past) - so I dont know if he'll remember my name, but he might so let him know I referred you (not sure if it will help with pricing anymore).

Lol Marcus! Getting it PC'd is a much more permanent solution. Or you could even polish it but then you'll need to get under the car and polish it as maintenance to keep it from rusting.

I'm not planning on doing anything my undercarriage but since you can see the sway bar when looking down in the engine bay I just might have to.

^no polished sway...blue would provide a good contrast against the polished undertray and match the hoses well.

on these cars you won't really feel much, not sure about if you do all the tie braces like all the under carriage ones and the rear upper. might need a bit of research
