Color-Rite Lime Green is $139.00/quart!!! Are they smoking crack? I remember when this stuff was half that price (just a few years ago). What the hell happened? An 11-ounce aerosal can is $30.96!
I need to procure a quart for the race skinz. Anyone know of a cheaper way to do this (i.e. paint code for a local jobber)?

Can't you take in a piece for a computerized color match? Not sure what piece would be easiest to check, but I'm pretty sure that an auto body supply place will either have the code for Dupont paint (or other brand) or could match it and custom mix. BTW, what brand of body did you buy?

Purchased AK Composite full set. Should be here in about 2 weeks. I'd typically go with Sharkskinz but they've gotten astronomical in their pricing. They quoted north of $800 for a full set (with racer discount). And, it would be 4 weeks before they could build it.
AK easily beat the price and time constraints. Now let's see when it shows up and what it looks like. I'm confident though, the Attack Kawasaki team is using them as their supplier.
