as above,

gonna have to paint my jacking covers when I get replacements, as Im getting the car painted eventually I may as well just aerosol them for the time being but need the paint mixed up to match the car.

 

halfrauds do colour matching... how good it will be i have no idea

 

they dont mix the paint up though do they? just have standard car colours on the shelf.

 

the one near me mixes paint..

 

go to ur local paint shop. or body shop and ask were they get there paint from go there and they mite be able to do it ?? were i get my 2pac paint they can mix it in to aerosol cans so try some were like that
i get mine from Reading paint works but thats no go for u

 

Every Halfords store will mix a 300ml spray can for Ł10.

 

If I was to take one of my jacking covers (that I still have) down there they can match it off of that?

 

CARS
Morrelli
do mixed into cans

 

most halfords mix paint even the small shitty one near me

 

hmm interesting question.. me and my mates saw an advers.. from halfrauds saying they would 'match' any paint if a pannel/wing mirror was brought in. we went in with the wing mirror of his Sti rype RA and said match this.. they said we dont do paint matching.. we were like well the advert says you do.. they said nope nowhere does that!
Took the mirror down to the local 'brown brothers' (may be called 'newtone paints' now and they matched it straight away.. was cheaper too

 

halfords dont MATCH paint i dont think... but they do mix it...

 

I need it matched. Think it might just be easier to take the covers to a painters and get em to do it.

 

I believe there is a place in romford near gallows corner , but cant remember the name of the place, I know it doesnt help but it might trigger someone who knows the name

 

Nah do it your self! i done my engine bay with halfords rattle cans lol And if i can do it any one can

 

Halfords certainly managed to mix some flint grey for my sapph, I think you take the paint code along and they find the "recipe" in their computer.
Not all stores may do it though.

 

aye thats right dude
think it was called something like lenords brooks or something
harold wood

 

Halfords need the colour code on the vin plate to match the colour for ya- i work there p/t unfortunatly!
they may be able to match it from there colour book for ya, but its unlikely !
hth!

 

trouble is mines been painted in the past and its not the same shade as the original.

 

in that case don't bother with halfrauds matey- go to your local bodyshop, get some paint, and then try to find somehwre to put it in a can!
halfords might, but they'll obviuosly charge ya!

 

cheers fella, think I'll just give em to a paint shop to do
