i believe ECS tuning sells a spray bomb type thing. i'm sure with most cans of paint you'll never get a perfect match though.

Are you sure that your car is alpine white? I'm pretty sure thats a MK2 color. I thought Mk3's were cool white!

Calgary Body Shop Supplies LTD they will mix the paint and put it in the can

Make sure you have a right paint code check it out in the trunk under the carpet, or on the fuel pump cover

Try paint direct too, my mom works there and I talked to her about making spray bombs....i'm not sure if they have vehicle paint codes though but its another option.

Re: Where to get matching spray paint?

I bought some spray bombs from Calgary Body shop supplies, What I seggest is after they mix the paint, but before they put it in the can have them put some on a paint card and then take it out to see if it matches you car.

Most places I have bought bombs from are willing to do this for you.

Re: Where to get matching spray paint?

I got a matched can at autovalue, straight off the shelf.....it matched perfect, and it was red (in my 3 years of autobody, red was hardest to match, then white).....looks great...
