Somewhere around here I saw a post from someone saying that they found a pretty closely matched Guards Red equivalent spray paint at Walmart. I figured I'd pick some up when I go up there tonight to buy some cupholders for the car, just that, when I went searching for the post I couldn't find it.

Anyone know the name of this paint? I'd only be using it to touch up a few pebble induced chips on the rear panel.

Krylon Fusion Red (Pepper)... close but slightly darker. Fusion is the name of the product line... its basically spray paint for plastics. A good portion of my front valance is painted with it, along with my 968 mirrors and turbo rear valance.

Awesome thanks. That would be great for painting the lower half of my front valence then

also rustoleum gloss sunrise red is identical to guards red paint. I repainted my entire engine bay with it. I blends perfectly.

Thanks for the tip Catfood, ill have to check that out next time im at Home Depot. My front valance needs a touch up every month or so... its only 3 inches from off the ground .

Testors makes a "guards red" spray.

Look up touch up paint on google. You can get a paint pen with guards red that WILL match and be of much better quality in terms of durability.

any auto paint store can do an exact mix and put it in spray cans for you.

+1, not perfect but close enough for my track car!

You can get touch up paint from the dealer in the pen, but its about $20. I used it to fix the stone chips on my fenders. Frankly my front valance gets beat up so often its not worth paying the premium for good paint. It costs me $5 to touch up the front with the Krylon and unless your a foot away from it you can even tell the difference.

It aint no show car!
