Default Closest Aurora Red in a spray can.

Hey guys. I'm not terribly concerned with getting it dead on, but I'd like to get it pretty close.

Looking for the closest I can get to Aurora Red in an off the shelf spray paint.

Any suggestions or anyone done it already?

Most of the auto paint stores would be able to mix you a 12 oz spray can that would be extremely close if you could take the A to them or a piece if it (I took my hood panel). They can use a paint match gun and get very close for around $15-17.00 a can.

NAPA will scan car and mix a spray can for under $25 dollars and it will be very close! How can you go wrong! Wayne

While an auto paint shop spray can will give you the best results,

This might help;
