Just need to find an auto paint supplier pal, theres normally one in every town. Expect to pay around 28 to 30 quid for a litre of this new waterbased stuff.

I am an expert on these things and that is blue. Glad I could helplol

Oh and I told you to rivet the little plates back on to the car. If you did I could have had a look for you:roll:

If you get the wrong colour we can always spray it two tone. Infact I have some other colours left over. We could make you a harlequin Nova:thumb:

I bought my paint off ebay. ?50 for 5litres of 2pac and 2.5 litres of hardener.

Find a supplier on egay and ask them to mix you some up.

It's a pretty unique colour on the roads that's for sure :thumb: I had endless arguments with my mates whether it was green or blue though lol
