I have a friend who lives there, but maybe try Hannets?
He says, most hobby shops are gone.
I will ask him just in case.

I have been informed by someone who knows such things that the chrome trim paint that I seek is no longer available in the uk.
I am left with the impression and experience that that is so.
So it's a case of OK choose another one and move on.
Tamiya X11 it is then.

Here is what my friend came up with.

Yes I did go to that store but if you go through all the colours there will be no silver chrome trim
