Where to buy paint & stainless bolts?
I need to do some repairs in Pembroke Grey LRC476, any recommendations where I can buy the paint, preferably in aerosol cans?

Also had to drill out one of the bolts for the passenger side door, so I figure now is as good a time as any to replace front and back with stainless?

You need to find auto paint supplier who will match your colour exactly.
I note you live in Shropshire If you are near Telford then Auto Paint supplies will have what you need

‘Bring your paint code to our trade counter in Telford and we will mix your colour in body shop grade paint for you while you wait. We can supply the paint in touch up pots or in our special wide fan automotive aerosols’

Halfords do paint mixing in most of their branches now. I've had a few cans from them and they're pretty good, they also have decent nozzles on their mix in store cans which give a good spray pattern.

Try Arc-Rite welding supplies . I have had great service from them. Supply aerosol paint to your paint code, and sundries such as wet and dry. Much cheaper than Halfords and delivered to your door.
I would also recommend Bolt Base as a supplier of stainless steel nuts and bolts. Again mail order but quick.
