I fancy giving my car a re-spray (original colour of course). Anyone got any ideas how I might go about finding large quantities of BMW paint?

Can you not just get the paint code, which is stated on the label found on the passenger side front suspension turret? Or are you actually after paint from a BMW dealership?

oh I know the code alright, I just don't fancy buying about 200 aerosols from halfords! I'm just wondering if anyone knows how you might go about getting much larger containers for attatching to airspray guns.

ant car paint supplier in your area can make up your shade with the right code,as for the spray gun and container, i got one from Machine Mart,but once again places like partco or even halfords sell them.
