Styling Alloy Wheel Paint Code

[Pookster]

Hi All,

Not sure if you can help, I've got corrosion appearing on my alloy wheels, 2019 Abarth 124 spider.

I'm trying to locate the paint code, my friends at Forward Autos St Helens have tried to find out what the code is but alas without success. I suspect it is to do with the car being assembled by Mazda and details being thin on the ground.

Some have suggested it to be Mazda Mica Grey but that paint seems to have less of a green hue to it.

The wheels are finished in anthracite grey but no-one seems to know the code.

Thanks all,

Warren

My local wheel specialist repairer seems to know most of these. He did our Panda and the new paint is indistinguishable from the other two wheels. Bear in mind wheels are powder coated not sprayed.

Thanks for the advice, my local guy here said the paint has a funny hue which he can't seem to match. Think Ill just have to take the wheel off and goto a local paint store and get them to mix the custom colour as the off the shelf alloy wheel paints dont seem to match.

The response from Abarth customer services was disappointing. I just don't know how they wouldn't know what the code is for the paint!

"Regarding your inquiry, we do not have access to the exact color code for the vehicles. When it comes to alloy wheels, specific colors are not readily available. Instead, an alloy wheel specialist would need to match the paint for any necessary repairs or customization. Therefore, we recommend visiting your nearest authorized dealership for further assistance. The contact information for retailers, can be found by using our retailer search function found on our website Abarth Retailer & Service Centre | Abarth UK (abarthcars.co.uk)"

I've noticed I've got corrosion creeping in on all 4 corners so I suppose one option would be to get them all done in the closest colour to the original.
