Hey guys, I was wondering if you could post up places where you’ve had good experiences getting paint work done. When I was putting my wheel back on after installing my header, a nicked my Brembo caliper, and Nissan in their infinite wisdom doesn’t make a paint stick for them. Which doesn’t really make any sense, since all Nissan/Infiniti cars with Brembos use the same paint. Anyway, since I need to get the paint custom made, I was thinking about shooting my rear calipers to match. Then I started thinking about doing my engine cover to match the brembos (never seen anyone do it before, it’s a very cool metallic orange/bronze). Plus, I need to get the bucktooth painted and there are a few chips that I wouldn’t mind having done. Ericksen recommended Tri-star collision, but I was wondering if you know a better joint. Thanks! 🙂 ---

That crappy bronze/gold color that the civics come in , i hear is a perfect match. Seriously. ---

why get them painted when you can get them powdercoated. have you thought of that way. ---

Because the front calipers are already painted. Unless they can exactly match the color with the metallic flakes in it, powdercoating won’t work. Plus, the engine cover is plastic, and I don’t think you can powdercoat that. 🙂 ---

Are you just doing that to increase your post count, you whore? 😃 EDIT: Is this the color you’re talking about? [http://tinyurl.com/6wut6](http://tinyurl.com/6wut6) It’s the only one that looks bronze that I’ve been able to find for Civics so far. EDIT#2: Here’s another one…the guy says it’s custom paint but I saw another Civic on eBay the same color: [http://tinyurl.com/5edqd](http://tinyurl.com/5edqd) ---

Im pretty sure that is the color that the Freshalloy guys were talking about, they wanted to match the color to the R34 Brembos. ---

Hmm…I’ve been looking for the paint chips for that color online, but I haven’t found a site that carries it just yet. ☹ EDIT: Never mind! I went to freshalloy and searched…fancy that. 😃 The color is Honda’s Inca Pearl. So, thanks for posting about Fresh Alloy. 😃
