Is the Halfords paint any good. My local Halfords didn't have any when I checked although they did have the gap on the shelf. The lady behind the till said they would be able to get some ordered in for me but didn't seem too sure. (She gave me distinctive 'new employee' vibes).

If their paint is good then I shall probably get it from there, the local paint shop that I trusted for my Mitsubishi went the way of all too many small independent businesses a few months ago :sad

I think that it was a pretty good colour match, when all is said and done. Metallics are hard to match but I was happy

One way would be to take of the fuel filler cover and take to you local car paint supplier and get him to match your paint , they usually do aerosol ready mix and then you will know you have a good match .

My local Halfords usually stock 2 x Tahiti Blues but the one which seems to match closest is Tahiti Blue 1993 which seems to match previous posts. Depends how weather beaten your existing paint is.
