Came across this website recently which claims to be able to match your car colour from the model/year /manufacturer etc. I tried it out with Mercedes, 1996, Silver, and it failed at the first fence! However it did come up with the correct colour code for BRILLIANT SILVER and found ATLAS GREY under grey So I guess the jury is out on this one p.s. I have no idea what their paint match is like http://www.paints4u.com/AutoColours.aspx?ProductID=5020

Apparently their match is excellent and the spray nozzles give a better finish than other cans.

Peeps on detailingworld really rave about how good the colour matching and finish is.

Thanks ...

Toying with the idea of colour coding my wheels ....

 

[Dieselman]

Don't do it. They look better contrasting.

OK , how about gunmetal grey spokes , like the old white whale ?

With diamond cut rims .

I'm with DM here Howard - your wheels are perfect and have just been refurbished (?) - I'd definately leave them as they are

Darker wheels will make them look dull on a coloured car, your wheels make the car look brighter, so ....No..!!
