They mix to order mate - but you may find your local motor factors also do paint and are cheaper.

Well. I decided to get some paint mixed up at halfords. Got a 300ml spray can for £13.99. Lexus charge £9.99 for 150ml.
The guy was very precise while mixing up. I'm very impressed with the colour match. It's never going to be perfect.
The can I must say is fantastic for those small jobs. The spray is a vertical narrow mist and goes on very evenly and smooth.
I can on this occasion recommend.

Used Halfords mixed paints for a while now, and never had any problems with them, always found them pretty good :thumbup1:
