Default What's Up Softail Brothers! Paint Question...
Hey guys, it's been awhile. I've checked in occasionally but haven't been posting much. I am trying to match my paint on my tank. I want to get some new fenders and paint them to match. Not really wanting to go to a complete custom paint job for now. How hard is it to get the paint code for HD stock colors?

thanks

It shouldn't be difficult at all. Any decent auto paint shop should be able to look them up with just make, model & year.

Give me the year and the color name I'll see if I can get you a PPG paint code.

Had it been black I would have suggested 'Testors Enamel Gloss Black' for less than $2 for 1/4 oz bottle. Perfect match, we all get dings and know its just a matter of time before having to pull the tins for that killer paint job but until then...
