Default Silverstone in an aerosol?

I want to touch up a few scuffs on my front bumper and have been looking for Silverstone in a spray can but haven't seen it anywhere. I have a touch up pot for small stone chips but this is too big for that.

Anyone seen it anywhere?

Thanks

Halfords will make you a custom tin.

Before they put the mix in the can, see if you can take the pot out to match you car.

I did with my old Civic - made a difference.

i used halfrauds paint once. didnt use it again.
was on a red pug 306 - colour difference was miles out. the paint itself was ok, the colour match wasnt.

i'd be crusing the yellow pages for morelli paint distributors - had paint made up and it was 100% on a white civic i had.

Different Paints4u, but I've used these guys and got a perfect colour match on my NFR:

Nice flat colour though. Don't know how good they would be with a Silverstone.

Nice web site and it recognised Honda Silverstone and the Honda colour code

I have ordered a small kit which includes:-

1X custom made 400ml aerosol of your chosen colour
1X mini Pkt4 Wet & Dry (180/400/600/1000 Grit),
1X 500ml Clear lacquer aerosol
1X 30ml G3 Rubbing compound.

All for

Same kit that I bought. EDIT: No it's not, I'm lying. I didn't get the aerosol one.

Here's my thread on the subject:
