Right firstly, peugeot are complete morons for not making enought EYC Silver 206's as it is harder to get parts that colour! and so now i am having a problem!
i have rubbed back the SP arches that i have bought because they are EZR paint code and dont match the paintwork and stand out like a sore thumb so i was going to paint myself. i went down to halford and asked for some help after looking on their website and they only cater for peugeot paint codes; EZR, PAG, PKD (as website states)
www.halfords.com/webap...ice%7C%7C1
where can i get an EYC paint from that i can do myself?
Thanks

take your paint code to a paint shop that mixes paint, thats what i did was like 12.79 for a biggish can, even had wee cards that i brought out to my car and matched it to the correct tone

I don't mind halford paint but there Lacquer is pants.
Tho they are bit over priced compaired to my local car shop.
I have used eBay for paint before, never had any problems.
