Successes with color-matched paint vendors?
I've got a 951 euro bumper that's copenhagen blue that's in need of a color change before going on the car. Has anyone purchased an aerosol can of "color-matched" paint and had good results? Not looking for a perfect finish at this point but I'd like to avoid paying $250+ to paint a bumper I'm going to repaint again in a year or so.

Yes. Sherwin Williams automotive paint store. They used some kind of gun to check the paint on my car, made some paint and it matched PERFECT. It was $12 per can, and each can covers 6 square feet. Took less than two cans for the valance and front bumper. Let me find a pic....

The front valance, and bumper was spray painted. Nevermind my ****ty fogs and driveway, both have been replaced.

Aaron do you have the color code of the paint (for the change over) if so go to an automotive store where the mixe paint (my place when needed is CAR QUEST) ask them to mixe it for you ,up here it's about $28.00 a can.It won't be perfect but it will be close.
