SOM paint question
I just had to replace the original battery in my car, due to it leaking. Needless to say even tho I caught itright after it started it ruined the paint under the battery.
I had SOM mixed up and it's so different. It was mixed by my dads chevy dealer, which had just painted my sail panel due to a scratch and it matched perfect!
I know GM never cleared under the hoods of these cars. But my paint looks like hugger orange, not SOM. There is like no metallic (sp?) I need help, how the hell can I get paint to match?

go to your local paint supply store with the car and they will match it to your car. underhood colors are usually a little different from the exterior colors because they are not ment to be cleared.
