I asked this a while ago after a similar coming together. Apparently it's a Prodrive paint code that has never been released!

I changed my wheels to dark anthracite (see RB5 corner thread) but you do have the option of getting a paint made up if you want to keep the original colour.

Another thing - if it's one wheel that needs doing then it might well never match the others even if you do have it done and you'll end up having to get all four done anyway.

Best of luck
Phil

Recently had mine done and managed to match the paint with a (dare I say it) vauxhall colour which I think was smoke grey but I will double check tommorrow when I get to work.

Hope this helps

thanks chaps. I've seen the pictures of yours phil and they look pretty good. I was hoping to get away with one though as the others are unmarked.
Neil - if you can find the code that would be good. We'll keep it our little secret that its a v######l colour!

Cool

Steve sorry for the delay but better late than never.

This is what is written on the tin- G.M Smoke Grey 99460 140/96C

Hope this is of help.

Should be ok as my rims only needed blowing in in a few places.
