Color Identification please?
Hey wassup....i've decided that imma paint the interior inside my engine (fuse box, spark plug cover and etc) now my question is...does anyone know the specific name of the color blue that dc uses on their strut bar...if not then any other blue that looks identical or close to that color...the reason for this is because i dont wanna have too many different color shades of blue inside my engine...as of right now im waitin for DC to respond...but i have a feeling that they are goin to say its just anodized...or some color that the shops near my house wont have...lol

1. i wouldnt expect them to respond.
2. you probably could go to a good body shop and ask them to color match it, but itll take a few tries cause its billet aluminum i believe, and thats probably hard to color match, but just go to a few good shops and ask if theyll do it, but for jsut the little bit of paint youll need, i dont know if it will be worth the price, i think theyll wanna make you an amputee to do it.

Go into an auto store and look at all the spray color touchups. Usually Autozone is cool about letting you walk out with stuff to match things (just park in front of the windows and tell them you just want to match a color). Grab a few cans that look similar, and match the cap. There is also an anodized-look spray paint, but I don't know how close it matches.
