Oem Paint

Looking to get my trunk welded and repainted but can't seem to find a place to buy ultra metallic silver paint. If I buy the paint the guy who quoted me will do it for even cheaper. Anyone know where to find paint.

I've been looking for the same question around the web, this is a site I found: Automotivetouchup.com Touch Up Paint, Aerosol Spray Paint and Touchup Paint Accessories | AutomotiveTouchup | 888-710-5192

Any autobody supply distributor should be able to mix you up as much of whatever color you need - just bring them the oem paint code.

Should be a shitload around Charlotte......

Don't weld it! Too much heat will cause a distortion and will lead to lots of body work to get it straight again.

Uh.. yea.. weld it... Body filler will degrade.

Use low heat, and spot welds...
