New Saddlesbags to Paint-paint codes/where to find/buy?

[IdahoRenegade]

I scored a set of Tsukayu saddlebags off of Ebay that I will need to paint. I have a '12 Roadster in the gloss black metallic. Will my local Napa be able to cross reference a paint code by the year and model, or do I need to find one somewhere (on cages it used to be under the hood). Thanks.

Not used it yet. Seems to run about $28.00 a can. I am sure there are others on here that can give you better guidance.

The roadster is a tri-coat so it will be a little more than normal. Assuming you have the Phantom black.

You should use a primer, Then There is a base coat that is black, Then a top coat that is black with metal flakes, Then followed by the clear coat.

Color rite is definitely the best place to get what you need and they will flag the base coat code in the wizard (I think it's 10207)
