Hey guy's I put this in Paint/body section but didn't get much response, so I thought I would try over here.

I need an EXPERT color matcher in the St.Louis area, please.

Thanks for the help.

They painted this car. Most amazing color(s) I've ever seen. They can get you fixed.

That looks good, but what I'm finding out is that body shops can't butt match. Most can paint a car, but finding one that can match existing paint is proving next to impossible.

SSTG

Ttt.

Talked to a couple shops that were suggested so far, still have not found one that is confident with color matching.

What is it your trying to color match? Hood, fenders. It's going to sound crazy but I had Zisser tire in Wentzville (they have a body shop also) do a hood for me tr and it was a perfect match. Talk to Ron.

SSTG

Thanks man, I know Ron, I detail the Viper clubs (some) Vipers. He doesn't want to mess with EB either. Everyone says it has to be blended in,not possible to get a butt match.
Btw It's the front bumper I need sprayed. The guy who installed the Clear Bra tore the paint off when redoing the bra.

One more for ya. A buddy of mine just got his maroon and black custom c5 painted after an accident from Elite Customs. Mikey is the guy to talk to if you haven't tried them yet. Tell them Brad (my buddy) sent you. Pm me if you need there number.

That's who has done the work thus far. They are a great Co. and have bent over backwards to try and make this work, but I'm just not happy with the end result.
Here's a pic:

Hard to tell in a pic, but you can see the difference and under florescent lights it's worse.
Before anyone tells me I'm being unreasonable, realize my car has 8,xxx miles on it and the Clear Bra installer put me into this mess. I just want my car back to were we started.

So what's your options if no one will blend it? Take the paint off and start over?

SSTG

With todays technologies I can't except that it can not be matched.
The paint has been removed and repainted 5 times. Spray cards and all.But when it gets put on the car...It's just not there.
The other option is to find a bumper in great shape off of an 02'-03' EB Z06. Which I have a WTB thread for one here on the forum.
