do a search...

but... testors candy apple red transparent paint is a perfect match. Get it at any hobby store, or most stores that carry any models. I was told to use a coat of clear adhesion promotor first, and that worked great, it has not come off at all.

Nonmembers can't search?

I second the testors candy apple red paint. You can pick it up at the model car section of Wal Mart for about $3 a can. It looks great on my car, but I suggest you upgrade your bulbs to 35watt bulbs if you want to see anything while backing up in the dark.
