Wheel Refurb - Which Grey?
« on: August 08, 2010, 06:16:54 pm »
These are my wheels and exactly how I want them to look (colour wise), so with a refurb on the cards I need to know how to describe this shade of Grey to, or acquire a paint code for someone like A1 wheels.



How would you describe this colour - Steel Grey? Gunmetal Grey? Soft Charcoal? I think they're too light to say a mild anthracite.
If anyone has a paint code and can show me the colour of the wheels they've had them done in, that would be ideal - cheers  :smiley:

Thanks all
- Pete.
