40th Paint color!!!!!!!
 

Have anyone had any luck matching the color? i might purchase a bodykit soon and i have no idea how i can match the paint! Any input will be appreciated. I think we all need this information! -_- :tiphat:

You won't be able to match the paint... a qualified body shop will... lots of people have had success matching it.

You "could" try Automotivetouchup.com Touch Up Paint, Aerosol Spray Paint and Touchup Paint Accessories | AutomotiveTouchup | 888-710-5192

I bought the Aerosol for my headlights and its spot on. But thats a headlight shroud. For the body I agree with Matt, Bodyshop!

Pay top dollar for a high quality paint shop, give them the paint code.

shouldn't be hard for them.

So that's the 8th or 9th attempt at matching my paint on my 40th.

Anyone have perfect match?? Would it be possible to send code or what was mixed and how. My cars been in the shop for 4 months.

These are all color chips done so far.

4 months?!?!?! You need a new shop...


How are they painting it too? Paiting it level? The direction it's painted and dries makes a big difference in how it looks when done

Lol wow, the color itself isn't that hard to match but if you're only painting the bumper it will never match the metal section. Most shop try to get it close to the OEM color in the rear bumper. If anything ask them to tint the color before they paint it on too.

A good shop after 4 months would be smart enough to give it a base coat of white or silver or something and/or with a second layer of paint it shouldn't be even easier to get the color right

Yeah, just have them tint the color while you wait and you can be the judge of the color.

looking at the picture just scares me since i need my rear bumper painted
since i got hit lightly... but needs new paint for sure

Paint code anyone? Painting process? please help OP and myself

Paint code is KAV.
A good shop should not have a problem matching it, depending on where the incident occurred they may need to blend into another panel to help make sure it looks perfect.

Dreamer is correct, a skilled paint shop should not have a problem matching the color using the paint code which can be found in the driver's side door on a sticker right above the barcode with your vin number. He is also correct when saying that they may need to blend the fenders and the hood if the mix is even slightly off or if you paint is faded at all.

I just had the Stillen front end put on my car and we ordered the paint off the color code in my door and it turned out great!
