You couldn’t tell that it wasn’t the original paint job before today?     ;)  The color “Viper Yellow” probably can be mixed up at an auto body place, if you can’t find that color specifically at a car parts store. It just looks like a bright, non-metallic yellow to me though, so you should be able to find the right color, even if its not called “Viper Yellow”.

I found an actual paint name today..

I was hoping to buy a can of paint based on that code.

I hope I could find something close enough. I noticed that yellow can be in many shades

He said the color name is Chrysler's Viper Yellow.. It looks a little bit darker then in my sig..
