ED30 alloys are meant to be VW Titan Silver but apparently this comes in two colours, neither matching the alloys perfectly. Someone else had this issue and found Halfords' silver alloy paint to be the best match.

I have a can of silver thats a near match, halfords stealth isnt the closest. Myself and Cossy both bought cans online if you remember. :happy2:

Cool. Don't remember that. Do remember someone trying to get hold of Titan silver and used both kinds with a huge difference between them, mainly because I was about to go out and buy the same paint at the time.

Where did you get yours steve?

Hmm. Shame they don't have the Monza II grey colour. Keep saying I'll buy some when I stumble across it - just incase!
