Default Paint Question??

I'm going to get my car painted in the near future. Where could I buy some 99-00Si Red paint? I want to buy the paint first and then take it somewhere to get it painted. Is there a website that sells factory Honda paint? TIA

Unfortunately, you're not going to be able to just buy Millano Red Tricoat (R-81) in one can. It's a tricoat, it has a transparent red candy on top of a red basecoat, and then clear over that. Give it some very blue/pink tones in the correct light.

Just go to a reputable paint shop, have them mix a base and a top for you. Or go to a reputable body shop and just have them do all the work. You're not going to save a ton by purchasing the paint separately.
