i was wondering if someone would notice. i didn't even see that till i posted the pics. something weird with the new paint and speed yellow. for some reason under flourescent light and/ or a flash, it looks different. However, outside in the sunlight it looks perfect. the dealer pointed it out to me when i picked it up. they were going to repaint it because they were looking at it inside and they noticed the same thing. once they brought it out into the light, it looked fine. very strange, but it does match perfect in the daylight. most of the painters i talked to told me that speed yellow is a pain in the ***. it is supposedly very hard to match and does weird stuff like this sometimes.

don't like the painted stock lip. looks funny to me. besides, with all the driveway scraping and stone chips, it'd look like hell in no time. i think i'm gonna hold out for the techart wing, unless of course Ed is going to let it go for cheap, cheap, cheap

Sorry for the rant.... Just tired of excuses all the time when the job is not done right in the first place...
