Default Candy Apple Red
Trying to get my car painted pretty soon but can't afford a candy apple red paint job. So I was wondering if there are any similiar alternatives to this color. Any suggestions?

My budget is around 2,000. Thanks for that color I'll look into it since I valet cars. I see lots of different shades of red but cant find anything I really like.

Ford has Sangria Red Pearl...
That mazda metallic is nice as well..
Look into OE colors(they're cheap) vs custom mix codes...

This topic is 15 years old. You'd be best off taking this picture to your painter/body shop, and tell them you want something similar.
