G35 18" Wheel Paint?
G35 18" Wheel Paint?
Does anyone know the color name or color code for a 2003 stock wheel.
Here is a picture of it


This car has had bad luck with these wheels, coming out of a side road there was a whole in the road which was not visible, the rim hit and then cracked and lost air instantly. After that wheel was replaced with a new one, when sears was installing the new set of tires for front, (keep in mind i dont trust places like that with the car) so i brought loose wheels to get tires mounted... (new wheel was in box it came in ) they dropped it and mangled up the new wheel and the other front wheel, they only replaced one because it was a "new" wheel with paper work, after long struggle with sears, they shipped us a new wheel. After that just other day,, a bank of america drive through atm with no guards curbed the wheel, its not jagged, i sanded it down and smoothed it with the rest of wheel but i just have to remove clear, and shot it with color and re-clear it.

There is no color code, its a 3 stage process that isn't easily repeated in the US. It is a black basecoat with a translucent silver coating, normally known as a "hypersilver" finish. Most shops won't be able to replicate this finish
