What you need to do, is work out your car paint colour code - it will be printed in the service book with a load of other numbers/letters

also printed in spare wheel well on a label I believe

otherwise, ring your local dealer, parts or service dept, provide your reg number and ask them your paint colour code and name

Hope helps

posibly your paint work had been bleach slightly by the sun,happens alot with red cars,t-cut a small patch and try again
