How much paint should I buy?

[91 SHOplus]

Hey Gang,

Right now I have some mis-matched panels on my car (grill & spoiler). How much paint would I need to get them to match the car? A pint? a Quart? shrug

Less than a pint would work. A bodyshop or Paint supply store can mix any amount you want.
Do you have the rest of the supplies you need? Reducer for the paint, Clearcoat, hardener and reducer for the Clear?

If not, try shopping around at a couple of different shops. You may be surprised with a lower quote than you may think.
Somewhere in the vicinity of $125-175 would be my guess, if you removed the parts and brought them there.
