    cirrus blau paint match?

    I need to paint some bits on the new daily, I don't want to spend the money on paintscratch for their kit at this point because the body is not perfect by any means. Anyone find what paint matches closely to the CirrusBlau?

    Your question doesn't make any sense. Cirrusblau matches Cirrusblau. Any other color will be off.

      I know that much, I was wondering if anyone found spray cans of rustoleum or krylon that is fairly close, at 70 bucks for two cans of OEM paint from paintscratch I don't see the need for OEM paint.
      Car is rough so I don't mind having a slight paint mismatch

          Yeah paintscratch is really good stuff, I have used it before on my swap car and it is awesome.
          The home depot always advertises their paint matching skills so I think I may drop over there after work.
          If they can't do it I may just set up my booth again and learn how to spray automotive paint.

            Why not use paintscratch and start making your car nicer rather than letting it keep rolling downhill?

              Because the front end is all messed up (beyond reasonable repair) and I bought it for 800 as a winter/daily car
