Colour code should be on the strut in the engine bay mate (drivers side usually) Any paint shop will do it for u or Halfords will mix it for u if they dont carry it as stock- Of course ur other option of course is the dealer but I must admit iv brought paint from the dealer, halfords and my local autoparts store and the best of the lot was the cheapest autoparts store that mixed it for me (plus u get twice as much as the triple the price stealer gives ya)
