Default What paint matches Rota bronze?

I posted this in A/C but they are too busy jerking off onto carbon fiber spoilers to answer a real question.

Does anyone know of a paint that closely matches Rota bronze?

I have a few spots on my C8s to touch up and Id thought I might paint my headlight housings to match my wheels. Thank you.

Yeesh, I'd actually contact Rota and ask them what they recommend.

Rota recommend that I buy a small bottle of touch up paint for $20 shipped to my house. Pretty ridiculous I think. Plus Id like spray paint too. Anyone else?

someone posted here not to long ago that there was a kyrlon color that matched almost perfectly. I will try to find it, but it was in the eg forum if you feel like taking a look. It was pretty recent and a 5 dollar can of paint is cheaper than the 20 dollar one rota is trying to sell you


Found it:
