Can you purchase the the paint for the alloy wheels?

My local dealer has given me a brand new alloy wheel after they curbed one and I want to have a go at repairing the old wheel.

ok, so i'm in north london - how do I use your friend? Presumably I drive to you in oxford, swap wheels around, then return the next week to pick up my shiny news turinis? how much will it cost me in total?

Is it possible to get the Speedline transfers anywhere? Long-shot.

Is that the same code for the Cup Wheels?

Wow a thread from before even my time :) I think the information above is a little misleading as it was my impression there was not an exact match in powder coat????
Has This changed anyone?

You’re right Chris. Colour match is the main issue with powder coating. Also they often have a large metal flake content. The original colour is a light flat shade of grey.

There is no match in powder that im aware of as powder can't be mixed like paint.
As powder is a solid and paint is not its very very difficult to get an exact match.

I have seen a lot of powder coaters paint wheels and then use a clear powder coat (Just like lacquer) go over them.

Below is the paint codes for all the Renault sport alloys
