Shannon and All:

I think the Cummins Apex Red is about as close as one is going to get in matching the original Chrysler 300F Ram Manifold Red master. There is a little difference that I am sure will not be noticed on the variable surface of the manifolds. (I didn't realize I once suggested trying to match a medallion!) That must have been before Dave Schwandt discovered the Cummins connection! The ram red and the medallion flag red are not the same shade---different Chrysler color numbers.

I painted mine with a "rattle can".

From researching the Tech section of the Club web site, it appears the closest paint to use for the long rams on a 300 F would be Cummins Apex Red. Other than trying to match the paint on a medallion as suggested by Gil, does anybody have a different opinion of something that would be better/closer? Also, if the Apex Red is the best choice, is it normally sprayed out of a rattle can, or is it mixed? Does it go over a normal primer coat?

Any advice from anyone who has experience with this would be appreciated.
