I stripped my E88 black centers and want to paint or powder coat back to original silver. Shop painted it a high temp silver and it came out too gray.
Anyone have/know a source for the paint color or powder coat number?

for powder coat try PRISMATIC

Thank you sir!

jbigelow

Yep.... anytime

Most powdercoaters dont stock PRISMATIC and will custom order it...... but most places use TIGER DRYLAC Bengal Silver

do a google search for bengal silver powdercaot.

I talked to the shop and think this Porsche silver is still a bit grey. The BBS silver is closer to a polished silver than a OEM Porsche wheel color which has more gray in it. Anyway, will shoot some sample on a aluminum beer can and look at it.

sorry, had to throw that in there - I still pray for their souls

Opinions of BBS E88s gold/chrome on a Lapis Blue 996?

Spyerx

Yes.

Here it is with the twists

BBS Gold goes with everything!

Not Lapis and Not E88, but you get the idea

That second pic is the E88 I believe!

2nd pic is an E07 for center lock applications.
