What exactly are you asking for help with? Why not just buy the paint from vauxhall?

I know, my point is the paint code said Smoke Grey when my car isn't Smoke Grey
I get all my paint from a local paint shop.

There are different tints of the same colour available, ask them if you can take the sample cards/book outside to the car to find the right shade, hold each colour on a panel and look at it from different angles in direct sun light.

To be honest they are not exactly going to be 'paint mixing pros' so even if you find the perfect tint it will no doubt come out different.
