3-Bar Grill

For those of you that have a color-matched 3-bar grill, where did you get the paint for the grill? The only thing I can find around here is the touch-up paint. Any help would be greatly appreciated

There are plenty of online auto paint suppliers that will put your paint color in a spray can. I had this problen with my Silverado, only available in small touch up vials. Expect to pay roughly $16 a 16oz can. Just give them your paint code.

yeah I ordered a can of paint $27 for 12oz(shipping and the paint) I'm not sure I'm gonna do the 3 bar I want to, but I'd have to order a diff grille because the HHR is my primary vehicle

I had thought of painting the 2 black and the 3 the car color, not sure what I'm doing yet

lol thats how I feel, what I might do is paint the 2 black, then if I come across a cheap grille do the cuttin on that lol :) I'll see what happens when my paint gets here, even tho I hate to waste $20 on a test
