Help me find a paint

[cyberkid]

I need to find a close match in lacquer for the bumper color from these 2 pics.


↑this one is a little dark due to lighting...
↓this one again is a little light colored due to lighting


Sorry, can't really find good pics of rav4's with this type 'bumper?'.

I have access to: Tamiya, Gunze, Alclad2.
I'm hoping to clear coat this with Hiroboy's 2k system so... needs to be lacquer...I was also wondering if acrylics would be able to handle a direct wet coat of 2k ?

Thanks for any replies before hand.

Looks like a mix of TS-42 Light Gunmetal and TS-17 Gloss Aluminum Tamiya paints should do it, but you'll have to decide the formula. The top pic is a little lighter than the gray, the bottom is a little darker than the silver... - Mark

Yup, good choices in my book. You may want to experiment on some scrap using different color primers, as they will have some impact on the color.
