what big stores can i find testors paint at?

i went to my local wal mart and they dont have testors brand anymore, its now some crap made by house of kolor it says, and the paint screwed up my grid taillights when i tried to do the orange to red mod.

now i have to order a new set of lights, i do want the red turn signals still, though I think ill try with testors this time, but i cant find anyone that sells it.

Travis when I did the mod I got my paint from Hobby Town USA. I dont think any of the big stores carry this type of paint. Your best bet is a hobby shop or arts & crafts store.

How did it screw up ur taillights? As long as it didnt really melt or crack the plastic...anything is fixable.
