Mitsubishi Paint HOW MUCH?

Does anyone have any clue how much paint I will need to paint an EVO 7 wing? I have munich silver and I was also wondering how much the paint will cost me, If I buy the paint someone will paint it for me.

try and talk to someone that works at a bodyshop. mostly all paint distributors color match the car perfectly. all they need is your paint code. obviously there is "color match", and "similar" paint (some places try to save a buck or two). for your wing, you'll need about $35-$50 worth of paint (of the color match). thats basically it.

A quart should be plenty. I don't recommend getting any less as the paint is harder to match in small quantities. The paint should cost about $40-50 for the quart, but unless your friend is providing it, you need the flex additive, clear coat, and hardener as well. Figure $100 for all the chemicals.

As for the color match, any decent auto paint shop should have the code for Mitsu's Munich silver in their books.
