#59034, "Is there any dupli-color paint close to factory color?"


          

I'm lookin for some to match the red on my car, i think its the r87 color red. Is there anything made by dupli color or plasti cote or anything that almost pefectly matches it?

you might be able to take your paint code to a paint shop, or a body shop and they could put it into an aerosol can for you. when i had my eclipse i used duplicolor currant red, it was pretty damn close, but not perfect

Would it be close enough to paint the center tail light peice on my car? I had one painted, and my sis got a hold of it and threw it down the steps lol she's only two.....so imma repaint my altezza one.

i wouldnt, it was close enough to do accents on the interior, but no perfect enough to do exterior work, try some paint shops to see if they cant make an aerosol can for you

i went to a sticker shop and they gave me a piece of scrap vinyl that was way big enough to cover it. It's held on w/o bubbles or any peeling for a year and a half. BTW they had like every color i could think of
