Dealership, for about $15. It's has a applicator that smears (bad) easy. So you may want to dab it on a toothpick and apply it. Also the Clear finish. I would not put it on, until the paint is dry. Then compound, polish and use wax. Do it around 70 F. Cool surface! Good luck!

I had a local body shop mix me up a little bottle of paint for my car. I had the RR paint pen for my red Evo that I bought from the dealer and it sucked. Get some mixed and use a tooth pick like someone else mentioned.

The link shows the price of the paint...that is the price shipped. This is just the paint...no clear.

Wish I would have known this! I just ordered from the local dealer because the shipping quote on your site was $9 ... more than the paint itself.

BTW, it's $9.77 (I think) from the dealer and they require your VIN. It also takes like a week for them to get it if it's not in stock ... some shipping issue since it's flammable.

There are no shipping issues -- sounds like incompetence to me. Mitsubishi has a fantastic little paint charge w/ color names, color codes, part numbers -- wow....just wow.

Also, it shows shipping...you are not charged for the order until I ship it and I remove the freight charges. It never hurts to PM me with any questions regarding freight...I get a ton already so its not big deal.

I'll know for next time ... thanks. I didn't think to PM you here.

I told the guy that I knew the color name but he still wanted the VIN ... maybe he was voiding my warranty for paint modification.
