Repainting Mirrors - Close match to 96 GS-T Red?

[kawboy]

My mirrors are faded and the clearcoat is peeling. I plan on repainting the mirrors myself. Does anybody know of any car touch up paint sold in local stores (Such as Duplicolor or Krylon) that is a close match to the stock red off a 1996 Eclipse GS-T? Thanks

depends on the red...but i cant imagine any touch up paint besides factory color, matching up perfectly

I'm not looking for an exact match, just something close enough to the point where it isn't noticeably different

If your car matches my color (R87 Radiant Red). Then theres a can of Duplicolor at autoparts store called Phoenix Red. Its not a perfect match but pretty close. Make sure to get some clearcoat. I used this to paint my center taillight. You can see in my gallery.

Exactly what I was looking for!

Thanks so much, yes it is R87 red. And looking at the pic in your gallery, that Duplicolor red is pretty damn close!

That paint comes in the little Touch Up paint spray cans, right?

I thought about painting my tail center piece, but then I realized how much I like the Eclipse lettering, and didn't feel like buying new lettering, so I'm just gonna keep it as-is for now.
