Paint Specialist Needed!!!!

I recently had my Infiniti I30 vandilized. It looks like someone took either a key or some sharp object and took it around my whole car so I will be putting my car in the paint shop on monday. I asked the guy if I could get a bright white done to my car instead of the factory pearl color. He said that he would rather me see a car out here with the white I want on my car insead of looking in a color code book because i dont get the full effect. So basically what Im asking is, is their a specific color code that comes to your mine when you think of the brightest white you can get for a car. Or is their a car that you know of that I can look into that has a bright white on it that comes factory. Please help me out so i can let the guy know by Monday. Also if u know a website where I can get some information on this, that would help to. Thanks

I'm no paint specialist but I think that Lexus' white is pretty bright compared to others. Most of their colors are brighter and more uh vibrant I guess. I'm sure the body shop can find the paint code in their books. If your not sure just drive by some dealerships and look at the cars.

If you don't want a pearl white and just plain BRIGHT white, I'd go with 2004 Denali Super White. Whiter than any new Lex, BMW Series, Infiniti, etc. etc. etc. that I have seen.
