Just on the verge of refurbing my 17" alpinas and was wondering if anyone knew the proper colour they were originally painted? If I'm going to the trouble of renewing all the hardware it would be nice to know they were exactly the right shade of silver!
Cheers
Alpina classics colour

I'm pretty sure Lepsons have the correct colour codes for BMW, Hartge and Alpina wheels. Might be worth trying them?

Worth an email I guess! Would it have been a BMW colour or their own specific variant?

I spoke to lepsons a couple of weeks ago and they said if i could bring them a wheel with the original colour they would colour match it as close as poss.
