rfakhri is an unknown quantity at this point

I actually want to paint my wheels in dark gunmetal grey, similar to the one on the Nissan GTR. I have been struggling to find the paint code. Anyone can help?

TS has spoken and after careful thought it stays stock except for some red seat belts to breakup the interior. If I do wheels ever it will be the HRE40C in Satin Black as a 2nd set.

Thanks guys, 2nd save (calipers were first)

Good call Marc. Your car looks great as is.

BTW, we need to have a GT3 get together sometime.

I agree with 20C4S that the OP's photo is not a factory black painted wheel on the gt3. The factory version has only a thin strip of 'silver' (I think that is what 20C4S meant to say) and the interior center section painted a dull grey/silvery color which gets dirty really quickly, especially if you don't have PCCB's. z356
