paint color/code for alloy wheels
« on: Saturday,September 20, 2014, 05:21:03 AM »
Does anyone have a paint code or official color for the Lotus alloy wheels? I'm redoing them and want to keep them as stock looking as possible. I know it's a metallic dark gray/charcoal, but that's the best I can come up with.

Thanks,

Hi Mark

Many years ago I spent quite a while finding a paint which matched the original colour. The one I finally settled upon was Porsche Metallic Graphite POR723. Once painted and lacquered the wheels looked just fine.

Regards
Andy
