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

Shut it u stupid little f**k, what's the point in posting in all my treads being such a c***? Least I can afford a gti180, and to get the cam belt done!

So apparently everyone knows my financial situation? If I wanted a 180 I would have bought a 180 simples Smile

I don't mind halford paint but there Lacquer is pants.

I have used eBay for paint before, never had any problems.
