Default Custom paint

Hi all,
I found a site that does custom paint for touch up's or painting parts. Their prices are not to bad I paid $32.90 for a 12.5 oz spray can. I bought it for my cougar, but they do have Scion listed 2004 through 2006 no envy green as of yet, Hot lava & solar yellow, and the rest of all of the colors are there.

Ckeck them out as they seem to be on e of the only games in town that will mix up a custom can of paint for you, now all can be in DIY heaven

Well that's good to know.......................... I DID A SEARCH on Google and there were not that many to choose from. My search was for "custom mix spray paint" and there was slim pickings. What would be your suggestion as to the phrasing of the search for better results?

Just saying do a search on Google is not much help.
So give a helping hand and elaborate.
Thank

Default The results are in.

The paint from http://www.paintscratch.com/ was a perfect match.
The paint from http://www.automotivetouchup.com/spray_paint.asp was a bit off. I was not a true match.
If I had the money I would have ordered from the others that I posted.
There was also a difference in price so you do get what you pay for.
http://www.automotivetouchup.com/spray_paint.asp offered a price of $21.& change + shipping while paint scratch was more money it went on better and took much fewer costs to cover.
This was my personal experience with these products.
