Matching paint??????????

[alexB]

So I am looking for some paint to match my car. Not sure if I can get it in a spray can or whatever. But I remember finding it on paintscratch.com before. But now seems as if they dont have it anymore. Anybody know any sites or anything that I can get it from??????

well, the problem with matching paint is that you have a lot of factors to consider. yellow is one of the easier colors to match actually. even when you find a matching color, you have to factor in that your paint is 5 years old now. a little bit of tan and white in with the yellow should match the paint.

This isnt going on the car. Just on a face plate for a custom subwoofer box I made.

Your best bet is a local paint or body shop.

They have sunburst yellow. I don't know how close that is to Blazin' yellow....

trying to match the Blazin' Yellow is no cakewalk. it's a tricoat paint with a SH*Tload of pearl in it. it's also not cheap. since you're only doing a faceplate for a box, you wouldn't need a whole lot, but that stuff is like $140 a quart.
