Default 1996 CE touch up paint

I found a reasonably priced paint that is a perfect match for the 96 CE Sebring Silver color. Dupli-Color WP101 Silver, High performance wheel coating, UPC 2691600101. It matches perfectly. I've sprayed one area, and sprayed the paint into a small container and used small paint brush to touch up other areas, and you can't tell the difference, even in the sun.

BTW - I just checked your photos - how does that exhaust setup sound? Any resonance?

I bought the paint at Pep Boys. I don't shop there for anything else, but they have the best paint selection in town.

The pipes have a little resonance around 17-1900 RPM, about 27-30 MPH, but other than that, are reasonably quiet inside.
