<![CDATA[Where to buy paint or get it done.]]>I need just the front quarters, bumper, and hood of my EF painted. They are all flat black right now, need to match the OEM silver (dont know the color code off the top of my head).

Don't need anything fancy or multistage or body work or anything, just a good solid job and color match. The rest of the paint on the car is pretty good, no interest in repainting the whole thing. any place anyone could recommend for a simple job? anybody on here want to do it?

I can do it myself but I don't have any idea where to get OEM color spray paint, so any ideas on that would help too.

I wouldn't personally care if it was left black, however my wife has demanded a single color car so you know how that goes. also this car is totally rust free and i'd like to keep it that way for as long as I can. the primer has some small chips that im sure will oxidize if left be.

as far as calling around, thats just the thing, I have no idea who to call. I don't need the kind of oem insurance work quality of a place like northwest auto body or advanced. I don't need expensive paint or anything. the panels have some small dents, they can stay there.

so I need to know some cheap small shops around town that can make my car one color for a value price 🙂

It will not be an exact match. Silver is a hard color to blend. Especially if the car is over a couple of years old and has had some time in the sun. Just letting you know so when they paint it and it is a little off, you are prepaired.

now i don't know how much you had planned to spend, but you could try calling around to different shops to see what it would cost. i can't see it being more then $500 for a single stage paint job on the front.
