HI,

Having now firmly established that L82 would have been the correct wheel hub color for my November 55 Strato Silver bug, I have a new problem in that no one seems to have it on the island that I live.

Does anyone know of a modern similar color preferably with code or alternative paint code from a particular manufacturer?

Many thanks!

is there a paint shop that could mix it? could it be ordered from somewhere and posted to you without costing too much?
I have seen that krylon spray paint - dover white or ivory suggested as a match for L82...
