    Paint code for tunsten grey paint please

    Had a bit of a battle with a bmw in my car today and suprisingly my car came off better and has no structural damage just a broken headlight,bumper and bit of a dint in the wing.

    Anyways im gonna get some cellulose paint and get my dad to spray it at home in the garage.It will do until i get a full respray in a bodyshop.

    Il prob use halfords for the paint just wondered if anyone knows what the paint code is incase they ask please? Had a quick look in the haynes for where to find the paint code on the car but couldnt see anything.

    608, but there are 7 variations on that shade depending on year and what mood renault were in.

    they are all 608, you just get 608 shade1, 608 shade 2 and so on. No easy way of knowing what your car is without colour chips.

    He done a good well priced job on a little bit round my windscreen recently so hopefully he will know what it is exactly.
