i do all my painting myself with real air paint guns and my compressor. and i get my paint from o-reillys auto parts. thye mix paint all you need is the paint code. the reason im posting though is because im 98% sure they also mix paint and put it into spray cans for you also.

duplicolor does not carry VSM but they do have radiant silver metallic which is very close. (daimler chrysler)

I have personally used it to paint my moldings and door handles and license plate thingie in the back... matches great just make sure that you use a good clear coat.

duplicolor worked for me!

prepping is key, if not that thing will begin to cloud up in between coats, especially if its a bit humid. have some rubbing compound in hand also just in case...
