Paint supplies

Go to Levine Automotive and give them your paint code from your driver's side door and they will make a can of spray paint for you.
The cans are the size of a normal spray can and they are only $20. I think thats prttey good for exact matching paint. You can use this to
paint eyebrows, grills, wings, etc.

I take it they would put the Blue Flakes in the NightHawk Black Pearl too. That would be sweet.

Paint

Just go to the link and order whatever you need.
From what I understand the paint is susposed to match exactly but the label has the paint code and Nighthawk Peral Black on the label.
The paint comes in two forms:
1. Single stage where you don't need a clear coat.
2. Base coat where you need a clear coat.

I got the basecoat but I haven't tried mine out yet, I 'm waiting for my eyebrows and grill to come.

This is wicked, I'm gonna order mine today. I wanted to do my mirrors, door handles and front grille and it would cost me CDN$200. This way it might be a lot cheaper.
I've been told that the door handles and mirrors won't coe out as smooth as the rest of the car due to their texture, is that true? And if so, is there any primer I can put on first or something that will smooth it out?

that is true. the type of material doesn't hold the paint. i would think there would be a primer available, but not sure. i wanted to paint the rear chrome piece on my sedan, and he couldn't do it.

Yu can get "primer-filler". It's a thick primer that you can spray on and then sand smooth. Fills any little holes or imperfections. Then spray your base coat over that.
