Default Good Color Matcher?

I'm looking to get a fairing color matched to the stock paint on my FXDL. Anyone in So Cal have any good paint references?

What part of socal? Mighty big area to choose from. Auto Art in Escondido is very good with color matching. Auto Body Excellence in Poway is good. There's a lot more but a closer match to your local area would help.

Which fairing are you thinking of getting? If it's a HD fairing, I think you can get it from harley. If not any good paint shop should be able to match your paint.

ask the service guys @ your local dealer.....they will have a few names/numbers on file that they use for paintwork.
