    Christ don't go to halfrauds!!!, look in your yells pages for car paint suppliers, you should have someone local, they'll mix up any colour you want and put it in an aerosol for you, it'll be better quality paint and you'll get more of it.

    take your fuel cap off and take it to a auto paint store and they can do you a match to the shade that you have on you car. most colours have a few different shades. For the love of god dont go to hal-frords they hav'nt a clue.

    I'm pretty sure Berkshire Parts and Panels do paint mixing. Youngs Industrial Estate in Aldermaston mate. Tell them I sent you and they should do you a good price. If not try Paintshop Products. They are directly opposite them in the same estate.
