    It should be pretty cheap. Have a body shop match it up with a swatch

    I got a PPG rattle can mixed for me at an autobody supply shop. All I brought in was the paint code and they made me a can. Clear coat was a separate can and it looked OEM. Best of all, it cost me a total of around 45 bucks for paint and clear. I'd post a picture but i don't want to clutter your thread anymore lol.

    you just need to be careful when you're spraying, its not regular rattle can paint lol

    It took me about 30 minutes to do with a friend helping just to line up the bumper. Did you get the Ep27 flasher already? you'll need it to get rid of the hyper flash once you pull one of your blinker bulbs out on each side. (don't tape them up, they'll melt electrical tape and smoke once hot)

    no not yet i was gonna wait til friday and pick one up when i run to the bank to get my check.... can i get the flasher at autozone or do i have to order online?

    I got mine at advance auto so im guessing autozone should have them too. Its just an LED relay. goes right under your dash above the gas/brake pedals. when u take a bulb out per side, tape the socket to prevent corrosion too.
