About a colour im after doing? surely if someone has a code/name they will? then mix and paint etc................
Only after suggestions.. i guess because i dont want Gloss Black, Grey or silly colours i get no ideas thrown in. *sigh

Why not say to them what you want, they'll show you some swatches you find a colour you like and woohoo you're sorted.
Instead of getting some useless replies on here.

Just say to them; 'Hi, I want to see some silver colour-swatches'. At which point they'll either go :wacko: which is when you run a mile. Or they'll go ':hug: take a look our Cactusy friend... At our lovely RAL chart!'
Then you get a massive boner and send me a pic.

When i went to the wheel refurb place near me they had all sorts of examples and colour codes to show you. We had the wheels done on my dads st done in a really bright metallic silver, looks really good! couldn't tell you the code or anything but it was just one of the colours they offered.

My vtr is quartz, wouldn't know if yours is the same, but there's another silver to try.
Very sparkly :homme:
Surely if you said to them you just want a standard silver with some sparkly flakeyness in it they will know what to do?

What's a standard silver when it's at home?
There are over 14000 silvers in the paint database I have at work.
a standard silver is one of those 14000 silvers you speak of, they all look the same within reason, im sure no matter whats picked he'll be happy with
