mossrosemotors on eBay, they're cheap and I think they post on here.

halfords sell it, you could also go to fiat dealer but they'll most likely charge you a fortune.,.,.,

I've got the same colour.
and the car came with a fiat one. price tag indicates £27.02
so well expensive. BUt its good paint if used correctly, spot on match!

If you want to try the halfrauds 3stage kit they are certainly worth the money £27.99!!!
they are primer, base paint, lacquer/top paint (depending on colour and for what car).

they can also mix paint, although from my experiance they can't get it right (computers are wrong, not the mixxing process).

My local Fiat (Wentane Motors) are actually about the cheapest place to get touchup paint kits. About £5-£6.

I need to paint a replacement wing mirror on my 02 Stilo Dynamic, but I'm not sure what red it is?

Swift/Bright/Barocco etc? I don't have a clue, and can't find anywhere that has a guide.

I've attached a pic, in case it helps. I know it seems a stupid question, but I'm a bit stuck and I wanna know what paint to get so I can get spraying as soon as the mirror arrives & not have to remove it again to colour it.

the paint code will be on
1) the vin plate, hidden within the vehicles code, there is probably something on google about how to read the vin plate on stilos, thus producing your paint code for you
2) on a sticker (silver on older fiats) in a door jam, or boot jam.
3) in the log book for when the car was delivered, it should have the receipt of delivery somewhere (unless its somehow got lost in its short life!!), which will tell you what options and spec it is, aswell as the paint and interior codes

the stilo is 199 tiziano red

Touch up paint is pretty poor in my experience of using it.

cheers!

bit embarassed, as I realised about 25 mins later where I could find the paint code, but didn't have time to come back on and say so!

where did you think it was/find it?

I checked the bodyshop section, there's a bit about it there. I had searched for paint codes in the forums but couldn't find it- touch up paint was the closest I fouind, then I realised I was being a tool. Still haven't got the new mirror yet, or the paint to spray it with!
