If it\'s Silverstone silver, then forget about getting the colour to match... ever! :Hammer
 
My old FD was that colour (still my joint favourite colour for an FD!), and I spent ages trying to colour match for the headlight covers. Tried everything from Halfords "made up to your specification" to trying match random paint chips... in the end, the closest colour match I could get was with www.paints4u.com
It was an excellent match, and frankly, short of respraying the whole car you are unlikely to get closer

the paint code for Silverstone metallic is \'3L\' if that helps matey?

yea, i know silvers are a pig to match on any motor.. let alone one that wasnt uk mainstream..

its only temp anyway, bodywork needs tidying in general.. scummy little chips here and there, and new front bumper wouldn\'t go amiss. and finding one that isnt so cheaply made that if u breathe on it and it\'ll crack, seems harder than it should be.

love the vanquish style front end.. but so many cheap reps out there. ordered one once, got it.. and sent it back. managed to slot half an a5 flyer into one of the cracks on the seem.
