You can get close at the auto parts store, i think it's a toyota color that is close.... But if you want exact, the only place i know of is http://www.paintscratch.com/

[carotman]

Dont go ghetto with the paint color. Get a color match can done at Napa Stores.

[Civic Accord Honda]

i was thinking of spry painting the whole car BLACK i think that woud look good

[Jasonf860]

Hmm, didn't know napa did color match cans. As far as I know, paintscratch is an exact match tho.

[MrBen]

Go to NAPA. If they don't have it on the shelf, ask them to look up the paint color in their catalog and have them order it. It comes in small cans but having an exact match is worth it. I was lucky enough that they had my paint on the shelf and was able to go home and paint!

[Jasonf860]

Does Napa carry the dupli-color paint or is it some special "Napa mystery brand"?

errr.... NO

Of course it won't be perfect. However, it's better than having a huge rust hole in the rear fender. Besides, he already started to do it himself.

DONT use bondo for holes...you need to get Fiberglass since its waterproof....when my car got sandwitched the insurance company took it to a body shop and they fixed the hood by drilling holes and pulling out the dent...they used bondo and painted it....5 years later i notice that my cars paint started to pop up....i took autobody class and the teacher said that bondo is like a sponge...if water get in it it will expand and the paint will bust open....so yeah USE fiberglass.

[A18A]

DONT use bondo for holes....
yeah, use metal + rivets + body filler like i did

[Civic Accord Honda]

do you put Fiberglass on the same way you Bondo i lerned how to use Bondo on my old accord

Yah because that would be so cool. Then when you go to the pressure washer...you can repaint it. But, really check out the $50 paint job on a budget. http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=2331682&page=0&fpart=1&vc=1:)

[A18A]

oh yeah i agree with the 2 posts above, i just forgot to mention it

[MrBen]

If it's a small area and you do an extremely good job on the prep you will have professional results... After my first accident where I smashed in my trunklid, I spent a couple of weeks hammering out the dents and bondoing, sanding, priming, painting and it looked like nothing ever happened and still looks great today with the cars new owner who likes to pressure wash the car.

[Jasonf860]

Well, i stopped at NAPA today on my way home... Seems ALL of the paint match they have for our 3geez is discontinued. No longer in the book. At least, according to the local Napa shop. So, it's either a ghetto paint job or an autobody supply store that can mix your paint in a spray can.
