so anyways, i need to know where should i get the paint from , i think the tone is DP0, but this is maxima code so yea.

and what ill be doing is let him paint the whole hood, the 2 fenders, the front and rear bumper cause i think the guy that i bought the car from used the parts from a plain black car.

so when hes done with those, is it possible that he can like only paint the small scratches all over the car, like they are very small but still noticeable.

last question and i know you guys said it but i need to get everything correct.

i need to buy .... primer? clear coat? the color itself?

please correct me if im wrong, and/ or give me the amounts that i need to paint, and like where should i buy it from?
home depot? lol idk =/

thanks guys
really appreciate your support .
Tell your painter you've decided to stick with the stock color and ask him where to buy, brand and quantities. He's the painter so don't going making paint decisions without his input.

He may need reducers and hardeners as well as paint, primer, clearcoat, but then again if you buy his brand he may already have some he can use.

Basically what I've seen a few times in this thread and what I'm reiterating is ask your painter.

I would stick with the black. Mostly because color changes are so much trouble. You have to get thye door jams, inside of the trunk, and under the hood. Under the hood is usually skipped because of the impossibility of removing all of the engine parts easily.

Find a nice black, or dark grey. Or if you want to do a 2 tone, just make sure one of the tones is black.
