AMRAAM4

OK, I did a search and all that came back was info from about 1 year ago, so here is my question about aftermarket e-brake handles:

Is there any new info available? No, really, I read that Team Voodoo's supposedly work and fit well, can anyone attest to this? Are there any others that can be suggested (Momo was spoken of as well)? My stock e-brake handle is looking a bit worn and I am trying to freshen up my interior since it is for the most part mint, except for things like the wheel, shifter, e-brake.

Second question: In that article about a "a sweet FD" in the 3rd gen section recently, that red looks a bit different than the VR. I understand he had the car painted recently, but I believe he said he matched it to the 99 red that came on the spoiler. Are these reds different? I like the red on his ride, but maybe it is just because it is a fresh paint job and not faded like many others. Regardless...I am still undecided on whether I want Innocent Blue Mica

Gracias to all

Here's a little bit of advice for those looking for colors on cars/etc they've seen on the internet. Open the yellow pages, look up your nearest automotive paint supplier or body shop, go there, and look at their color books. They'll have more shades of red (or whatever) then you'll know to do with.

The shade of whatever color you see on your monitor will likely be very different in person.

First, the camera affects the color. I don't care if it's digital, every model captures color slightly differently. If the original was film, even more possible that the shade you see is different. There IS a difference in color capture of different films, sometimes very dramatic.

Then you have to consider what settings the photographer (or camera, if point-and-shoot) used on the camera during the shoot. These settings can significantly affect the final color reproduction. If the picture is scanned, another layer of possiblity is added. Scanners may add artifacts and may alter the color more.

Finally, your monitor plays a big role in the shade of color you see. All monitors are different, and the same pic posted on the internet can look very different on two different monitors (nevermind all the color balance settings that one can screw with on top of that).
