| knwatkins Member Since: 11 Sep 2020 Location: Poole, Dorset Posts: 782      | Cheers Craig. I'm wondering how close Corris Grey would be. I need to order a touch up pot for the L405 because it's always useful to have. I still have some Stornoway Grey left from my L320 but I think that would be too light. Kev

| knwatkins Member Since: 11 Sep 2020 Location: Poole, Dorset Posts: 782      | So just to report back. Corris grey is a good colour match on the wheels. I dabbed it on a few chips and they can be hardly seen now. Kev
