All,

In going through the LM Tiger one of the things I wanted to do is repaint 
the Koni shocks.  They function well but look a little tattered from years 
of service.  I went to different forums trying to find the paint code. 
People tried different approached from color matching old shocks to using 
paint some of the Shelby & Mustang vendors supply, to finding "close enough" 
at the local paint store.  I contacted Koni NA in Kentucky and got this 
great response from one of their ITT people, Mason O'Hara.

Since many of us run Koni Shocks and want our Tigers to look as good as they 
can be, I thought Mr. O'Hara's response noteworthy.

Darrell,

"...We do not sell the paint either, but I can tell you what it is. The 
paint is simply PlastiKote T-31 Bright Orange found over the counter..."
