PRODRIVE PFF-7's BRIGHT FLITTER COLOUR CODE

Hi All,
I have had loads of requests for the Colour Code for 18" x 8" PRODRIVE PFF-7's BRIGHT FLITTER. so here it is, nearly :rolleyes:

SEAT 574/H2 GRIS SOMBRA TY
(the 4 may be a "U" his hand writings worse than mine)

This colour is slightly too light and will have to put a a spot more Black in it to Darken it to totally match the original colour ;)

I think you may be right about the 4 being a U. but also the 5 is an S
So it's actually S7U for SEAT platinum.
Will confirm when I have tried some.

This is the reply I got back from the ebay 'paint touch-up' seller.

Hi There,
I've repaired these wheels before and the match i did from my colour chips was indeed Gris Sombra a Seat colour, code LS7U/H2.

Hope this is of help and we look forward to your order.

So I've just ordered a pot......

Well I had Seat colour, code LS7U/H2 mixed up and it's too dark and too grey.
The Bright flitter seems to be lighter and a bit bronzer.

I'm wondering if this colour is the match for the WR1 P-FF7's which I believe are slightly darker.

Scott,
The wheels were PFF7's not sure if the WR1 wheels were a different colour though!!

The person spraying the wheels found the the seat paint was the nearest swatch match, he then modified by eye to match ;)

Here is the info off the Box and some other replies, if that will help ;)

The only problem is that they aren't recognised on anybodies paint schemes.

The only way to match the paint is 'by eye' from a specialist supplier.

But if you get the nearest match you can, then just respray both the wheels on that side ;)

Sorry I can't be of much more help.

There is a thread somewhere which talks about the WR1 wheels being darker.
A guy parked next to one at PE and could clearly see the difference.

I even recall reading a thread which quoted the colour name, which wasn't 'Bright Flitter'.

WR1's are a different colour:

SACC2580 "Alloy Wheel 18" P-FF7 Pewter"
