My 1999 Chimaera 500 runs on Estoril wheels and I have just had to order some replacement wheel centre discs from RaceTech (originals cracked after hitting too many potholes over the years). The new discs are fibreglass and come unpainted. My local bodyshop said he needs the paint code for the original silver colour in which these wheels are painted.

Thanks for the thought but the wheels are immaculate and my aspiration is to keep this car in original condition inasmuch as possible so don't want to repaint anything (it has done 50k miles and I bought it new so it has plenty of stone chips at the front but is otherwise immaculate but not a show car).

Thanks again - an interesting and valid viewpoint! I may have to resort to it if I can't get the paint code.
