hi,

has anyone found a paint code or touch up pen that matches the anthracite P1 alloys? want to have a go at repairing a few marks but don't want it to look crap:)

cheers

Hi, hope your not watching this thread for too long, it's just that every time I have seen this Ques asked, nobody has ever come up with a paint code!.(Do a search if you like) :( It would seem that prodrive would like every one to drive round on scabby rims, or at least buy a new wheel instead :o If you do manage to find out, could you E-mail me cos I'm still looking for a suitable match! ;)

i tried for ages to get some original touch up paint with no results. I got some rover metallic paint a few months ago, ill find out the exact colour and let you know.

Pazzadog, any luck with finding the colour???

forgot about that....i will sort it tonight sorry guys!!!

??????!

wouldn't a simple solution be just to get them refurbished?

Try the P1 owners website, they might have an answer for you

sorry for the wait guys......austin rover hurricane grey from holts is what i used.ok its not an exact match but you can only tell if you get up really close up

When I had the P1 I too tried to get this colour match but to noavail :(

Holts are the best match but not many outlets sell Holts anymore. I scoured all the independants and found a local one.

I was told that I need Dupli-colour Gunmetal Metallic LBM135 by somebody on P1WOC. I couldn't get anybody to stock that code so had to do it by eye. I actually got a close match with a Vauxhall colour, Titanium. On the stick it has the code <5061 6053> and CV164 0156.

I was happy with the dried result.

Hope this helps.
