Good place to get colour matched paint made

Postby Kyle the ED4LTR » February 19th, 2009, 10:49 am

I'm looking at respraying my moulds and bars, especially my bars after their hit. What I wanted to know is where would be a good place to get the paint made (Colour Matched). Because Poly green as most sprayers would know is a C$&# to match.

And what would be a good place to rent a booth from so the paint can also get baked etc etc.


Cheers

Kyle

I got my front bar on Nwolb colour matched and sprayed by XXX Body kits and Cheltenham road. They did a great job. They also redid Turbo Tony's front bar, bonnet and front quarters after another place screwed it up and it turned out mint :)

Take off your fuel filler cap and take it somewhere. Bayfords parts on the hume hwy campbellfield do an awesome job aswell. Thats who my uncle uses when he gets all his ford stuff done (Panel beater by trade)
