where to buy the paint

I tried PEP Boys and NAPA and Autozone but could not find one with 2M8 code. Where did you get it specifically? I will need to call them. Thanks

they won't have it... you need to go to a paint supply house. Usually any place that paints and/or does autobody repairs can point you in the right direction. Where r u located?

How is the paint holding up to the heat any flaking or peeling? I know you used high temp primer but I was not sure if the paid would hold up under the heat. I want to take on this project as well.
