Where to buy paint and how to respray body kit

Post by johnny778 »

I need to buy paint to respray the body kit on y 86 GTS. My paint code is LA7Y Pewter Grey and I'm stumped as to where to get it from. I also am unsure about how to go about respraying the rear arches of the body kit. What processes are required? Is there a step by step guide out there anywhere? Cheers in advance.

I can recommend www.paints4u.com from personal experience with their rattle cans.

I'd imagine spraying the bodykit is much like spraying any other panel, except I'd stick to much finer grades of abrasive paper since there'll be a higher risk of marking the plastic.
