ive been thinking about repainting one door and and one side of my truckbed. How are you matching the factory colour on the new fenders to the rest of the truck? My paint shop wants a fortune.

Well nem The paint code for this black is px8. Napa has a paint dedicated only shop here and the guy there(charlie) knew that before Icould get it out. So 10 min later and 162.00 (with my so discount) I was on the way. You got a code its simple as that. Here is another thought if dealine with faded paint. Sherwin Williams has a paint matching dodad that they put up to the vehicle an poof they got the mix. Did that with a 94 f150 4x4 last year.

ive got the code written down in the garage...Colorado Red anyhow. 162 is not that bad. i think red is more expesive plus i dont have a discount and also paint is usually more here in canada. just to make 4 aerosol cans which would just barely cover the one side of the truckbed was 140 dollars. well i guess is isnt so bad. The stuff for my HVLP gun was more though
