Cant Find a Paint Match!!

Badfish · 06-09-2005, 05:34 PM

For some reason, i can't find ANYwhere a color match for my paint. I have a couple scratches on the rear bumper ( stupid salesman was taking it out to show us when we bought ti, and he backed up into a generator) and i want to do some touch up work but i cant find the paint color...which is Zinc Yellow :angry7: :cussing: :cussing: :cussing:

Did you try checking the dealership? Im pretty sure they have it.

Doesnt the flexible paint on the bumper makes the shade a tat different than the rest of the body?

Badfish · 06-09-2005, 07:30 PM

looks exactly the same to me

I have 2 black cars so I cant tell but while driving I have noticed that other cars bumpers dont match exactly the rest of the car.

Should be a perfect match. The bumper paint uses nothing more than a flex additive.

Go to the dealership, a ford one, they should have it for sure. Ask over that the yellow mustang registry forums, they could prolly help too.

Most automotive paint stores have a camera that they use to match paint.They also can match paint by the numbers.The dealer should also be able to help.

Its probably because they have been smashed up and repaired. Working at a dealership, Ive gotten a good eye on picking this up... You can REALLY tell when looking at an angle when the car is wet.

You are probably right as I have had my Hemirango front and rear bumpers painted aready only 15months old.
