Whats the best way of getting some reflex silver paint? Well at least i think thats what colour my car is? Whats the easiest way of finding out?

How much is it going to cost for enough paint to spray my rear spoiler and front splitter?

Just for the paint? I just phoned a local paint company, £9.95 + VAT for the paint and my uncle has his own painting place so i can get it sprayed for free.

I just said to my dad, fancy going halfers on the drilled and grooved disc's i just order... jokingly and he said don't worry about it, ill pay for em!!

Should be all sorted by friday, colour coded gti splitter and spoiler + new new disc's behind my wheels :D.

Yeah i was quoted £130 for the spoiler and splitter. My uncle can do it tho as long as i get the paint for him! Gunna get some Front Aero wipers soon then thats me just about done with this car. Can't really think of anything else I want/need!

£50 ish seems alot for some Aero wipers tho. Wonder how good they really are?
