My lady slammed into my EP yesterday with her car and took off a couple large pieces of paint on the front bumper. I have a friend who is an apprentice auto painter and he said he'd fix it up for free as long as I can get the paint. Does anyone know how I can get ahold of the OEM Vivid Blue paint? Do most paint places carry it, and if so, what brand and type/code is it? Thanks.

Any paint shop should be able to get you oem paint! The shop im at uses a paint mixing machine...you put the oem code in the machine and it mixes the oem color for you...they can also order it to!

NP man. I'm thinking of ordering some of that in a spray can and painting my silver peices on the door and dash where the stereo and shifter are to match the exterior.
