Just had my ST220 alloys refurbished (painted not diamond cut) and when I picked up the car the wheels look almost white in sunlight. They hadn't put the wheel caps in and when they did there was a very clear colour difference.
I was told that it was the exact colour spec for the alloys but why are the wheel caps a different colour?? I bought new wheel caps in January and they matched perfectly!

Does anyone know the correct paint code for ST220 alloys??

Don't know the code but it's called sparkle silver.

They definitely sparkle at the moment. Thanks for your advice.

Isn't the main problem here that the centre caps matched the previously diamond cut face of the spokes not the paint?

ETA maybe you should of had the centres painted also?
