before and after...ss wheels
yes i repainted the silver first then waited about 30 mintes to dry then went back with 2 coats of black and toped it off with about 3 coats of silver
they will be switched between my 2 z's they will first be on my white one...then in about 3 weeks they will go on my polo green.

Who makes that silver paint? It seems to be a very close match to the original silver. Did you mean that you topped them off with three coats of clear after the black?

that silver i took to my local paint shop and after about 15 close matches of metallic silver we decited on this one...its a tad lighter but damn near the sam...its hard to find silver with that much metallic in it

Daniel, thanks for the writeup. One more question. Is the silver you used available in an aerosol can? I would really appreciate the specs on the silver metallic color since it is so close to the original. You honestly can't tell the difference in the two colors in the first picture.
no...we looked at several cans and couldent find one close to match...ill go oget the can and see what i can tell you so you can buy it...i got a sprayable pint for 25...
