Any shops in the Bay Area that can paint my s-281 wing that's currently flat black to match my 96 mystic cobra. I don't want to buy a whole pint just for the wing so just wondering if there was a shop that's delt with this paint before and had some extra laying around.

There's a shelf life but I'm not sure how old before it goes bad. How long have you had if for.

This paint smell different than dupont chromabase I usually use. It smells the same as it did 10 years ago. Kinda like nail polish.

I've read between $400-$700 a pint, the 04 mystic paint is much cheaper to obtain

I just did a 281 spoiler and a new front bumper a last year. One pint ran me 525 and was enough to cover both.
