Print it out on a high quality printer and take it to a paint shop they should be able to match it for ya.

Yeha I know a guy that does all his own paint mixing and he did up some paint for my dad off of a pic. It can be done just try to make it a good pic. You could always save the pic to a floppy or something and take it to one of those video machines and get it printed out. They usually are in really good quality.

hot damn that's a nice color.

a good auto body painter should be able to whip up any color you put in front of his face. good luck, your car will turn out sexy as hell.

btw, I want that circle gas tank cap!!

I knew exactly what picture you were talking about when I read the title, before seeing the pictures. That's the most beautiful color IMO. Several Tib owners wish they had it. Print it out, take it to a place that mixes and sells paint, and ask if they have anything in their books near that color.

That's how mine are. I used to have clear, but they didn't look right with the black. That color is awesome!

Yeah, BEST kit, BEST color. ( other than the crazy House Of Kolor kandy...)

As for that color, go to a body shop and take a look at the metallic grey of Mazda6.
Thats what my autoshop had in mind when seeing that pic.
