Star Silver 3 ...Z157.
« on: 24 April 2011, 16:27:14 »
Does anyone know where I can find a perfect match for this colour?

Genuine Vauxhall paint is roughly £10 for a tiny 150 ml can....sod that.

I've been using Car Plan Silver Met 21 which seems a perfect match. Good value too at £6 for a 400ml can. I'm having trouble getting hold of this now.... :-/ :-/

Any ideas?

Specialist car body paint suppliers will mix the paint according to the manufacturer specifications.  If I have to work on a car which has been re-sprayed before, or the paint is old and tired, I tend to take the fuel filler flap or another piece of trim to the Paint Suppliers who will mix the paint to match that.
