I am struggling to find the right one. Asked my dealer for the paint code for the 20” diamond cut 10 spoke alloys on my 9.2 and the response was that there isnt one.

I am looking at this page of touch up paint kits and wanted to ask here if anyone would suggest the closest match to the original colour of the alloys.

I find it hard to believe that aston martin do not have a colour code for the paint but alas that is the official response.....

Any help or advice much appreciated.

Diamond cut will be just that, diamond cut alloy that is then clear lacquered. There will not be a paint code.
I thought they were painted and then cut, thanks for the info.

What would be a good colour match to the grey alloy in your experience?

I got the nail varnish on ebay and it was delivered today. For £5 it was worthwhile. Although it isnt perfect the colour is very close and it certainly takes ones eye away from the black chips that were there before. You would now have to look hard to find the touched up areas. Once it has fully cured it should be job done.

Thanks again for the post, really helpful.
