    Default Who owns this NSX? [WHEEL COLOR]

    Who own the red NSX on the left and what color/color code are the wheels?

    Also what is the color code on your wheels Paul?

    If I'm not mistaken, the NSX you are asking about belongs to The Quiet One.

    Thumbs up

    It is Luke's, mine's on the right! They were painted by Wicked Wheels, when Luke's back from being stuck in Spain I'm sure he'll tell you the code. FWIW mine are OEM MY2000 wheels :-)

    From a little search around it looks like the later blades were painted in Blades Silver PB74P.

    EDIT: AKA Dark Amethyst Pearl.

    When I had my wheels powder coated & painted (2001 NA2 car, OEM wheels), Honda Solaris Silver, paint code NH-536M was used - the match with the centre caps was as close as you could hope for.

    Pretty sure mine r solaris as well. The centre caps were repainted and the black h's painted on by hand. Currently on a minibus with my 1 yr old going from Derby to Gatwick after getting stuck in Lazarote!

    Mine are the Honda UK equivalent of the JDM Washi Grey. I was told it is Pewter Grey, NH537 from memory.

    Didn't recognise my NSX .. maybe time to revert to Magnum Grey

    Those certinally are some good looking cars.
    The only thing to tidy them up is to remove the Headlight Washer System and send it over to me here in the states getting rid of those unsightly nozzles on the front.

    Has anyone tried to colour match for "powder coat" the "white" from the Type-R wheels?
    I painted mine with proper layers of zinc chromate, GPW colour and clear with wet sanding between each coat and they came just a bit less bright than the OEM GPW of my car.
    You can only notice when the wheels are in the shade. They don't look as bright "white" as the body colour. When they're in the sun they actually seem brighter than the GPW body colour.
    I was affraid to let some pillick have my wheels and have a go and bugger them up and i'd have to strip them again and start all over.
    It took a little more than 3 1/2 hours with a proper "Plastic Bead Blaster" from the propeller shop just down the airfield to strip the OEM paint down to bare metal. (Thanks, Palm Beach Propellers)
    They look great and most wouldn't notice but I do.

    Cheers
