Evening,

Does anyone know the exact paint code for the silver used on the 19” alloys from factory?

TIA

Factory finish is powder coated, not painted.

Correct it’s the colour or RAL number I’m after.

I have a number I wrote down when I needed mine done. Z17. That's for the Oem silver. Presume that's the RAL number your talking about. Also remember them saying wouldn't be able to get exact match as chemicals used in making the exact same original colour had been banned. Hope that helps
