Cool, but I don't need it in spray cans, just in a normal bucket. I will be renting a spray gun and air kompressor. I think this place would do it for me too....http://www.towerpaint.com

Thanks man! I will be painting alot of stuff in the future. Now that I have rental access from Home Depot Pro for a gun and compressor for $40 for 24 hours:

Repaint side mirrors and window sprayers
Updated side panels
Front grill and chrome strips, after sanding off chrome
Repaint front bumper
Maybe rear bumper as well
If I do I will paint the whole bumpers including the black impact strip.

I don't think I will be painting all of this at one time however, so in short, I will buy as much paint from you as I can afford. I will need to know prices before I can tell you how much I need. All items will be primed and clear coated with the spray paint cans. So I'm thinking 2-3 coats of paint on each item. I will probably just buy some to start out with and paint the mirrors and window washer sprayers to test all this out. If it looks good, then I will move on to the bigger items. I am planning to sand with 800 grit on each item. What do you think of this?

Find your right color code and you can find this color ID plate in fornt of the Radiator, right handside of your door. Making sure we gonna get the exact color match for your car. Or else we might end up getting a 24K gold color paint... ;) :)

Here's the prices for your project. I got the quantity that you might need based on what you've said.

2 qts paint
2 qts clear coats
1 qt primer.( maybe less)

Comes to a total of $400 including tax.
Take note that clear coats are not that cheap.
So let me know so I can have them mix it up for you. ;) :)

Man, thanks so much for your help and information. I will not be needing the clear coat and primer, I have that already in spray can form. I would start out with 1 qt of paint when I get around to this. Maybe you could price me for 1 qt. of paint only? Thanks again for your help. I will be able to get this soon, just not right now. Later, Scott
