There was another thread floating about just recently (in the last couple of days) but i cant seem to find it. I put a bit on it and a picture to prove a point about the colour codes and shades of them... Most certainly for my Sting Red Ro LS2 VXR, the paint code is 687F...

Yellow Devil 59U 04 -->
Impulse Blue 24U 04 -->
Quicksilver 13u 04 -->

Hi Mel,could you do me a big favor,next time you are at that Halfords branch would you mind asking them if they can mix paint for mine,paint code 470G Quicksilver.
Tried two branches yesterday,Perth and Stirling and they both drew a blank on any Holden paint codes headache,only found Vauxhall codes on their system.
If they can I will call in to them and buy some next time I'm visiting family in Stafford.
Cheers Nick
