Default Silver Turbo Twist wheel color code

I am about to send my turbo twists to powder coat to switch from black to silver.

My question is, does anyone know the correct color code to request to get the silver on the wheels just right? I am having trouble finding it.


And for anyone wondering why i am switching from black color wheels, i simply dont like black wheels, its not my style.

Thank You!
Sean

I was told it is GT Silver, paint code M7Z. I have some black powder coated GT3 wheels that I am going to have repainted in this code.

I don't think it's something that is readily available. It seems to be a secret.

Lots of people use Wurth silver metallic paint for touchups, and it apparently matches pretty well.

And I agree with you on black wheels. I think they can work on some cars, in some colors, but I'm generally not a fan.

wasn’t this the color code for the 40th Anniversary wheels? To color match the body paint?

40AE wheels are polished, almost a chrome look. The exterior paint was GT Silver just not the wheels.
