Where to buy paint for the new 2010 Blue?

I know colorrite is the best source for Kawasaki paint colors. But, they don't sell Metallic Island Blue for the 2010 model.

Does anyone know where I could buy it? Thanks.

Good question. I had no idea they didn't sell it. Perhaps they will update?

Hopefully they will update. As of now, they only have a few colors from the 2010 models.

yea, I'd like some touchup paint as well, I have a rock chip just under the headlight, and a chip on the front fender where I accidentally hit it with my front stand

Metallic Island blue? 2010 is Candy Thunder blue. Edit: What a minute? Is it just me or did kawasaki shift around the color names. Plasma 08, daytona 09, thunder 10 was what I thought the colors had been.

Nope. It's CPB, CTB, and MIB, though DTB may have been available on some other bike. I know I've heard it somewhere before... like on a ZX6 or something. Perhaps it's another name for the same thing? I can't seem to find a Color Rite entry for Daytona Thunder Blue.

Kinda blows their "it doesn't just match the factory paint... it *IS* the factory paint!" point away.

Metallic Island Blue, color code 15W, requires a base coat.

Much sooner than expected.
