You might have trouble. I had no luck finding a mix for the Sport. PPG for one, have long ago dropped all Bellett mixing codes although you might be lucky and find a paint shop with very old Micro Fiche that has them. You would need to get the paint colour matched to an area on the car that has not faded.

These days they have a photoelectric gun that will spit out mixing ratios for any paint colour after you hold the gun up to the car, you need about a foot square of decent paint to do it though.

some places have that but not my two nearest car paint shops so have to rely on the colour match. 1st batch i got was pretty close, the 2nd batch after running out of paint was way off...... different 'matcher'......

Thanks guys!

The inside of my boot is mint original, so will use to colour match if need be. There's a colour spectrometer at work too, sitting there looking innocent. 8-)
