I said no way, thats retarded. Whats the purpose of having a paint code number, if I still have to give up a piece of my car to get the right paint match. Can someone clarify this for me, and is this Stooge telling me the truth or what? |
The BEST match is PPG. It is also one of the most EXPEN$IVE paints for general refinishers.
