My paint is in really good shape except for the rear spoiler which is oxidized all to hell. I'm planning on painting it next weekend, but I need to know if Duplicolor will be a close enough match to the original paint. Anyone have experience with this stuff? Oh yeah, my '91 RS is Dark Red Metallic (burgundy).

As long as the original paint is in good shape,, it's a very close match. No matter how well the original paint was taken care of though, the new paint will be a touch darker, just from being new and not having the elements against it. Duplicolor is very easy to work with and can be buffed to a nice finish as well.

Thanks. Being that its just going on the center piece of the rear spoiler, I think it should look pretty good.
