Single can of OEM paint?

Post by Merlin » Thu Nov 22, 2012 10:17 am

Where can I buy a single spray can of Cassis Red Pearl paint? I assume that is the colour of my 4th (I haven't checked the code yet).

Any ideas?

Not OEM, but I've been using these guys: http://www.paints4u.com/

Colour match is pretty good.

The match doesnt need to be perfect as it's for a rocker cover. When on the site do can you order a single can of paint? This bit? http://www.paints4u.com/AutoColours.aspx?ProductID=5021
