Just about to spray the front (short unpainted) bumper of my LCV but unable to find the correct colour. Register website is down I think, does any one know please? I think its silver or Grey?

Ray Newell's book 'Original Morris Minor' quotes bumper colour as Silver (page 100) but doesn't say which silver.

I would say a fairly light aluminium silver (from memory) and probably the same silver as the wheels? To my way of thinking that would look best anyway.

Thanks for replies. Who/where are paint codes kept these days? Paint manufacturers?

It was just a random picture of a petrol tank, nothing to do with a bumper, sorry if my post was misleading!
