Re: oem paint
 
you can

1. ebay for a vin on the color, decipher the vin,
2. look up acura 19xx model year paint options,
3. call PPG or dupont for a color match, etc

i personally would go with #2

When I bought my lexus is200 paint from napa I just went there and gave them the year make and model and they gave me a list of paints offerred. I think G-73 is what it was, they show u a piant sample and I said yeah for sure buy it

www.paintscratch.com i think something liek that. you can have any store that sells paint and supplies mix it up for you.

HONDA DOES NOT HAVE THE PAINT CODE IN THE VIN
