Buddy,

I too have an STi in grey.
If I were you I would get the touch up paint matched to the car, rather than using the paint code from under the bonnet.
There seems to be many variations in colour with this particular car.
I recently had an STi6 lower lip spoiler painted using the code from under the bonnet and it was nothing like the rest of the bodywork.
Maybe Chipsaway can help you by making up a small pot of touch up paint. Give them a call on :-

Best of luck.
