Default Where can I get paint?

I was wondering where I would be able to get paint to respray a few panels I replaced after a little ding, I know Halfords do it in store but was wondering where else I could try? And if anyone knows of any relatively cheap spray shops in the Dorset area?

Thanks in advance

Where a outs in Dorset are you? I went t get a colour match at halfords and the colour match isn't that great.

I suggest GT paintwork in brockenhurst, well worth it, you will spend more in paint and materials then to get it done professionally there.

They don't have a licence to sell products with voc's and you don't have a COSHH certificate to buy from them.

Never had a problem with Halfords paint. Colourcoded my last car and was spot on...
