Does anyone know the colour code for this, if there is one?

Cheers,

Chris

Nogaro silver is not silver... that is what the motor sport wheels are painted in, kind of silvery green colour.

I can't remember the name of the standard silver...

My sons' just painted a set off an M3 ( sprayer by trade), i'll find out which colour as it was a blending in job and matched perfect, sure it was nogaro and looked silver but the old peepers are not what they used to be :)

The M3 had nogaro silver same as the motor sport. All the others have a plain silver finish.

I'm getting my BBS sprayed nogaro silver, and having the outer rim polished....

hi

this is a nogaro silver centre
the sport evos had this colour centre to their rims as standard
as did the motorsport convertibles
all other e30 m3s had "normal"silver coloured centres except the driver limited editions eg cecotto that had body colour centres
