I've got halfords to mix up lachssilber paint in a spray can before and it's never been that great. Anyone know anything better that doesn't involve a body shop!

Paints4u.com is the best place, their pre mixed with laquer touch up tins are great for stone chips

Just go to a profesional paint supplier, take a wing mirror or petrol flap and get it matched. They should be able to do a rattle can and laquer for you.
