Did you paint your skins and inner fender covers yourself or have someone powdercoat them gecko green?

Mopar makes like little 5 oz cans you can buy (don't do it). But there's a few different companies online that make them in 16 oz cans for pretty cheap. AutomotiveTouchUp.com is what i used and it took about a week and a half to get here because they custom mix every order.

I've had good luck on ebay as well for manufacturer-matched full size spray cans.

Years ago I worked at a paint supply place. We use to pump paint into spray cans. I would check at your local supply store.

I already did that and it was gonna be like $28 a can because its a "custom color" so that's why I bought mine online. It was cheaper even with shipping lol
