Going to be quite difficult to get a 100% colour match on all 4 wheels when only spraying two of them.

Would probably be best to spray all 4 while already doing two anyway.

yup, comes in two tubes, the filler and a hardener which is in a small tube, you can buy it from halfords but make sure you buy easy sanding stuff
