Thumbs up For those who want to buy PAINT

I found this site and actually ordered from them previously:

http://www.paintscratch.com/

You can order the basecoat, the clearcoat and the primer. I previously ordered for my Eclipse and the color was dead-on. Just thought I'd throw it out there for those who were thinking of custom painting accesories, vs. bringing it to a shop to get it done.

Very helpful. I was just checking today on what it would cost to have a front air dam I bought painted after I finished repairing it. The place I took it to, where I have had work done on other vehicles and know they do a great job wanted $200. I am like NO WAY! That was ridiculous.

So, I am going to order from there and do it myself. Thanks!

Might also want to check this place:

http://www.paintworldinc.com/

I got some paint for my Altima - and I have the pain in the a** 3-stage paint... so I had to prime, base coat, mid coat and then clearcoat. Heh.

Anyway - the match is excellent and it was cheaper than paintsctatch place. That's good in my book.

I checked that paintworld place out, and I found the site really confusing, not to mention picking the right code for the car is impossible in that drop down menu.

For a couple bucks more I'd go with the other site, but that's just my opinion.

That I agree with

I am impressed with their customer service though... they shipped a can of clear that did not have a nozzle on it. I sent them email on it. That same day, the shipped out a whole new can of clear, not just the nozzle for free

Anyway - just wanted to share a site...
