Do they actually have a code? Or has anyone got a code to a very close match?

Apparently this is a very close match

https://www.amazon.com/Wurth-German-Whe ... k126182-20

but as far as I know there is no colour code, the wheels are not painted by Porsche, but by the supplier to Porsche, maybe searching for the colour code for BBS silver????

Thanks Waylander.

Took my rims for powder coating & didn't like the silver colours they had so now have to find the paint colour myself for my satisfaction. Thought there wouldn't be an original colour code & already found a match I like.

But, that is matching a colour to my rims which are 30 years old & most probably not original paint!

Maybe someone has painted them very close to original & kept the colour code they used!?

I have read somewhere that Artic Silver is close, but im sure thats a later colour

when i took mine in to the wheel place they just said oh yes Cup 1's we have the right colour for those, I just said good now get on with it, but mine are quite bright silver so looks good against the blue
