I think some bigger Supa cheep, or Auto paint suppliers, Dulux trade center and the like.
Dont expect it to match.... just sort of close, the last one I saw done was only an old Hilux single cab roof, cans dont like spraying flat/horivontal surfaces, very hard to get a decentish job without putting truck on its side, although suggested regularly.

ruby red, code 1/3/303

thats the VW code you need to order Ruby Red 4754 which is the Dulux pint colour number

I dont think u will get a spray can anymore you may have to get a 1 liter mix madeup at yr local paint place

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
