i needed a paint colour so i took of my petrol flap (which you cannot do because it is not painted) and just tell the dude at the auto paint shop what
type of car and what year and you can look through a stack of sheets with different vw colours so you can compare and choose. Auto west in penrith
were very helpful if you live near there. |
