i was just wondering if anyone has used expresspaint.com for touch up paint on an aspen white 240 or other car. i was recently in an accident and i found a few body panels that are black and would need painting. i would rather not paint the whole car to make it match . does the aspen white paint from express paint match factory aspen?

The only white colors offered by Nissan on S14's were Aspen White Pearl Glow.

Aspen White IS the paint color but without the pearl coat it won't match. You have to get the whole car resprayed.

You will have a hard time matching a pearlescent color by yourself. I would suggest finding a good body shop, ask them if they can match the color.

Also, be very careful what color base coat you use. White paints are very sensitive to the primer color that is under the paint. If your car was painted with a gray base, and the fender has a black base. The finished color will be noticeably different.

You should also take sun fading into effect. It is minimal on a white car, but its still happens.
