ripped_fear Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Hey everyone, Looking for some help, I'm refurbishing some oem 17" wheels and want the colour as stock as possible. Am I right in thinking from the factory they are infact a satin silver not gloss? Does anyone have any good pictures in a decent light of what shade of silver they are too please. Any help appreciated Thanks Jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) On my UK specs they definitely weren't gloss but sadly not got any great photos of the wheels, i have this one photo while we were refurbing the Work Equips at Ibrars Edited June 5, 2017 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 On my UK specs they definitely weren't gloss but sadly not got any great photos of the wheels, i have this one photo while my car was waiting for the Work Equips to arrive Thanks that's what I was thinking too. Matt or satin. I've done one in gloss and the centre cap matt as a test and the centre cap looked more oem to my eye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blythmrk Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 They were the same finish as oem centre caps satin or Matt finish but also like a freshly sandblasted texture too. I have no idea how it was achieved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
