Apart from the stealers does anyone know a good place to get VW spray paint? Need some to spray headlight washer covers?
Has anyone used this from halfrauds?

I never had much luck with the colour match from Halfords but if its mixed on site as both mine were the match is only ever going to be as good as the mixer and I should add the paint I wanted matching was on older cars

My friend worked at Halfords and mixed me up some paint - It was a pretty good match but I think try it from Halfords - then go elsewhere if its Shi*

Try a local car paint supply shop, there should be one on an industrial estate near you, they mix it exact and check against the car

I've used it with no issues with Tornado red. Really good match,especially on faiding red paint calipers

i use a place called john davey paints, i think they have a website where you can order from if there not local to you, don't forget though most colours have 3 to 4 different varients, ie different shades,
