I'm just beginning my rebuild and am starting in the trunk. I'll be doing the painting in here myself. My question is in regard to paint sources. When I take the car to a shop they'll cross reference the paint color and buy it from XXX (they're prefered supplier) correct ??? So what should I do for my paint? Go to the local auto paint supply house and buy one of the major brand names ? and let it go at that ?
Or, god forbid, insist on buying all the paint from BMW ???
