    How long does your 4.6 take to warm up?

    Convertible Trim Paint Flaking

    i would go with some sem Trim black part #39143 which you can get from your local auto body supply store... For preping make sure you clean them real good, sand it down with like 400, put some etch primer on them and repaint.

    Noise after trans fluid change

    Just to give an update, I tried some of the suggestions above : I added more dextron III up to 4 qts to try and eliminate the 5th gear noise, and it was still there in the morning. Also noticed the 1-2 grind came back and shift effort increased. Today I drained the tranny again and went...

    House of Kolor Paint? Is it worth it ?

    Unless your going to do your mustang in Kameleon, 4500 for materials sounds pretty steep. As a distributor for House of Kolor, I can tell you first hand that HOK has a bad rap for being expensive... One of the main reasons for this is, most distributors/shops tend to mark up everything that has...
