Painting my bumpers Meridian

Need some help with matching colors: when I buy spray paint for my bumpers, what color comes closest to Meridian?

Thanks in advance!

Kai

Hey contact this company...directtoys.......they do porsche body kits...i bought my rear spoiler and rear diffusers from them, paint match was perfect.

tell him that you are looking for porsche boxster spray paint in meridian.....he has a company or will send you a link to a company that sells factory paint in spray cans. fairly cheap and sells the primer paint and clear coat. fairly affordable. i tried to put in an order for spray paint, but i live in canada and they would not ship cans of spray paint.

i wouldnt just colour match any kind of blue paint to a meridian colour. i'm sure that you can do a search for car spray paint on the internet and find other companies out there sellling porsche exact colour match spray paint.

hope this helps.

Talking Paint Matching

Thanks again for the help!

I was referred to this site: http://www.paintscratch.com/ where not only can you match the colors that you need, they can give you the entire package including primers, etc.

I am just waiting for my order to come in.
