Default BBS Alloys - Color Code for inner Barrel

Hello to all!

I'm in the process of refinishing my 20" Detroit-Alloys, after some fiddling to find the correct 'oyster'-tone by the alloy-specalist the centre-parts are done. Now I want to paint some smaller scratches on the inner surface of the Barrels. Does anybody know the Color-Code or Name of the OEM-Color ( some kind of anthrazit)?

Thanks
Wolf

Default Oyster BBS color

Hello, I see you found how to match the Oyster color. Can you somehow tell us how to match it?? My wheel guy messed up my color terribly and I have been trying to find a solution all year to match the color

Wolf, The only Jaguar Color that sounds like that is Anthracite Metallic. My 2000 XKR came that color and it is beautiful... Black with little specs of Gold, Green and Blue....I don't know if that's what you are looking for but that's the only Jaguar color that sounds like (Anthrazit).....

Hi!

The painter who has done the work on my alloys told me, that he had to import the paint from GB with much difficulties ( I waited around 3 Month to get the thing done, so maybe he told me nuts to have an excusion...). I will try to ask him during the next day's, if he has a code or a manufacturer-info for the paint.

@jeje: Thanks for the info, do you have a paint-code for the anthracite, you used?

Greetings from Germany,
Wolf
