you know thats not a pin stripe it is the lip of the wheel that just isn't painted, the other nasty thing about the OEM when not on the GT cars (GT2 /3RS) is that the inside of the wheel is also unpainted and it looks unfinished

Been there with the HRE P40s I had on the Cab , I love the stock Turbo S centerlock wheels. I am honestly not a big aftermarket wheel fan except some of the HRE product but their P40c is almost identical to what the car comes with.

Gloss or keep them like they are. Best looking Turbo IMO.

Thats what I was thinking over the weekend Black Gloss vs Satin I have, even though the Grey does look nice.

Sorry, don't have the code I'm afraid.
I have a good friend with a Nissan GTR, it is white with anthracite wheels, so I asked my dealer to spray them that colour.

I actually think they may have rang Nissan to get the paint code from them.
