Titanium/Black Optics alloy wheel colour - L8AU?

Post by chive90 » Wed Sep 20, 2023 1:22 pm

Sorry if this has come up before but I keep reading conflicting reports online as to whether the correct colour is L8AU or LY7P.

More people seem to say the former so I think it is L8AU (Audi Titan 8AU) but is anyone able to confirm? I am after the OEM finish that came on (I think) cars with the black optics/titanium pack. The alloy should be a matte finish.

Bonus silly question, if I ask an alloy wheel place for a refurb in L8AU, will it always be matte? Or do I need to specify that I don't want it to be a gloss finish?

Thanks

You must specify you want matt, I believe it's the matt lacquer that gives the finish.
