Default VSM Civic Owners, Get in Here. Duplicolor Question

Duplicolor doesnt have the VSM color code on their site, so i *searched* and someone said get Radiant Silver, i did.

Did you guys use something else for better results? (duplicolor only please)
Its for a grill BTW.

To my knowledge Duplicolor doesnt have NH-58M (VSM) In there line.

When I painted my Si grill VSM, I got it from

http://www.paintscratch.com

It matched PERFECTLY I couldnt be happier.

I just told you, Duplicolor doesnt carry VSM.

On top of that, silver is one of the hardest paints to match. So it will be risky if you order a random silver.

Why does it have to be Duplicolor anyway?

paintscrath $30
dupli $4

The reason i want duplicolor is because if someone has used a paint similar to the silver and it matched, i will use duplicolor. if not then i will get paintscratch. and i bought the radiant silver already.
