You are right mate, mine is the lighter one.

Also if you want to buy a spray can you have 2 choises.

I wasn't imagining it then! Mines the lighter one, I was gutted when I pulled up next to another one, it was the darker one, I wanted that one instead! Up to that point I thought that was only one shade, the code on the paint sticker has a /2 or /3, I'm assuming thats how to Identify them. I wonder how many in each shade were made?
