Does anyone have recs for color matching paint? Unfortunately my car's color didn't exist for the nb2s. I bought a bumper I wanted to prep, prime, and paint. I wanted to see what it would cost done at home vs taking it somewhere. Not looking for perfection.
Also kinda wanted to paint hood vents in the stock color...Not like they'd ever be stealth but.
In any event, any rec for color matched rattle cans? Is colorite the go to?

I had Rover resprayed in a 2-stage Classic Red a few years ago, and their 2-stage Classic Red matched as perfectly as one can expect it to when shooting from a can. Check Rover's build thread for pics of the match.

(Also, my block is at the machine shop... I really want to assemble it myself, but I'm terrified. Sean thinks I'm a wuss, but it seems like an expensive prospect to learn on this motor haha.)
