Have you tried the most obvious and order it from Honda?

Also, any "good" body shop can mix to get any factory color you want, just need to get the paint code off the door. Thats usually how they do it anyway.

Whats the exact paint code you want, how many quarts/ounces you want. Do you want it reduced ready to spray.....? I know the championship white code.

what kind of clear do you want.

I can get anything.

although i only get dupont. alittle more expensive..want something cheaper i can't really help you.

the best bang for the buck clear coat...i dont need show quality but i dont want it so dull you cant see your reflection. I would need it ready to spray on the car, and as far as quantity goes? enough for 2 coats...how ever much that would be. im going to be doing it all myself...anything is better then what i have now. PM me with price etc. thanks nate.

I'll check tomorrow on the price of the clear. I can get you a 7500 series clear pretty cheap. Its mixed 4:1 so its real then easy to run. It's what i use on most of my all over paint jobs.

Also the base is mixed 1:1 so its alot thinner than most paints and requires you to apply a coat of sealer down before hand.

I'll see what i can get it all at.
