u'll get everything in halfords mate.

Primer, laquer etc

ur C will either be a black solid or black metalic. Depending when it wqas made.

if you want a real good match go to your local motor factors and get them to mix you some spray paint(in a can) they will get a perfect match for you.cheaper than buying cans from vaux as well :wink:

If your spraying the whole front bumper I'd say take it to a bodyshop.

I don't think I'd be able to do the whole front bumper in cans and get a good finish! But it could be done if your good at spraying! :)
