I'm looking for an undamaged front bumper cover for a 94-98 Cobra. Paint doesn't need to be perfect, but the cover needs to be undamaged, no gouges or cracks. Either within driving distance of 50702 or willing to ship.
Nah. Here's the exchange:
I've done that. Two different paint stores have been unable to tell me what color it is. My last shot is a national paint supply company about 20 miles from me. If they fail as well, what's your suggestion then?
"I doubt that. I could take your gas door to my paint...
You are under no obligation to read any thread. Lots of people tried to be very helpful. I'm sorry that you are more concerned with the very few who did not.
Little update. I've secured a gentleman's agreement with a body shop to trade services. Looks like a full paint job is in my future. I'll try to update when that occurs, but it won't be for a while.
Thanks to those who attempted to help. The rest, good riddance.
Yeah, that's not really an option, either. No chance I'm going to convince my wife that it makes sense for us to drop $4k+ on a paint job for a slow 25-year-old car. If I can't convince a shop to work trade, I think my best option might be to sell it and buy one in better shape. It's not what I...
I got the chance to go out to a few different places today to try and get the paint matched. I tried the previously suggested Diamond Vogel, but they don't do automotive paint. I then tried a PPG about ten miles away, but they don't either. They recommended a big shop called Keystone Automotive...
Yeah, everyone seems to be of identical opinion on that. The funny thing is, when I called about wrapping it, the guy who talked to me about it didn't think they could match the color and mentioned if I wanted to they could just do black on the bumpers and skirts, lol.
Oh well. Hopefully I'll...
Yes, I do, and I will. Finding out Vogel does auto paint, it's right down the road. There's actually another place I found as well, but they said their machine is currently down and to check back next week.
No, you weren't mocking, you're good. :-)
It's what we've got, simple as that. I live in a small community. If I needed a camera TODAY, my only option would be Best Buy, and no one would call them a camera shop. Mocking that fact doesn't really add to the conversation.
