88588, Silver Eclipse paint Posted by HardaTaq, Sep-01-05 09:58 AM
I really want to paint the center part between my tails, as well as the outer corners of the lights but didn't know if there were any rattle-can options? I also need to touch up the front bumper a little bit. Any ideas?

Take my advice on this.. Rattle can type paints like dupli-color will not work. Will not even come close to looking rite.. I could show you how ugly the back of my car looks rite now from trying to touch it up. I bet if you take it to a body shop they could do the tail light piece and prolly touch up your bumper or something for $100 or so.

I found a store by my house that sells any type of car paint in a can, they mix it and you pick it up the next day, really good match too, highly recommended if you want to save some cash and your bored.

What's it called? I'd be interested in looking one up around here.

Ryan Hes is a member here, and he sold me a can of that fresh-mix A52 silver paint. I used it on my sideskirt and didn't even clearcoat it, because it matches *nearly* perfect. I say *nearly* because no one can accurately match your car if its older (i have a 95) because the color fades slightly with time. but with 10 yrs of fade, i have to say, the A52 i got was as close as it gets, and super-cheap too.
do i get paid for that endorsement?

Hey there.
$35 shipped per can. It'll be a near identical match, I use it on all sorts of things on my car...and my car is also silver, color code #A52, which isn't easy to match.. Let me know and I can have a can on the way asap. And for others, I can match any car color code, not just silver.

AFAIK our silver doesn't need an additional clear coating. I think it's mixed in with the paint. Don't quote me on that though.

Anyone know how I can get in contact with Ryan_Hes to try and get a can of that paint? I tried sending him a pm last week but got no reply.
