That is a fantastic stuffable replacement can, Simon! Rustoleum makes metallic gloss copper and aluminum paint that would possibly work for visual correctness instead of different filament. I don't know how much filament costs, but the paint is about five bucks. Just don't try to second coat with clear coat after painting with the metallic - it totally wipes out the gloss metal look. Don't ask how I know! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
