BBY Paint question
Hey BBY owners, have any of you had luck finding a color similar to ours in spray can form? I'm looking to paint my roll bar as close to BBY as possible, and wanted to know if anyone had personal experience with a similar color.
ie. Where I can buy the OEM paint in a spray can or something close.
Thanks in advance

that will be tough. I had my car painted using the factory paint code. but when paint shop said it would be 400 extra to get the basecoat it requires I didnt go for it. as a result the color I used is single stage without the silverish basecoat. it looks way different. the original color is a three part pant system.

just buy some oem bby paint with the paint code, just cuz it looks close in a bucket as a color, doesnt mean itll look the same. Im a bby guy had to have my wing repainted 3 years ago, costed me 80 to have a body shop paint it, including the paint. So im assuming 20-30 for a can of it.
