    Color match/ paint IS lip?

    I have an 89 alpine white is. The paint is not that great. I just got a new is lip and need to paint it. Also need to "touch up" a few areas. What is the best looking paint/color to match the closest to my old factory paint? Thanks

    I've gotten two cans of paint from paintscratch.com. My car is Bronzit. Color match has been great both times.

              If you want to do it cheaper on insignificant parts like the lip, valences, and such, there's a rustoleum (i think) paint color that's decently close to alpine white.
              EDIT:

              I dont know if this pic gives you any reference to how my re-paint came out but here ya go:

              I think its very slightly "creamier" than our AWII paint, but I used a brighter white primer and sprayed 2 coats of the dover/arctic paint over it and its very close in color I think.
              The first car I ever rode in was an e30
