Paint code for steering wheel trim

Brendanmck · 11-11-2015, 04:25 PM

Hope someone can help I'm having my steering wheel retrimed and was going to replace the plastic covers as they are marked only these cost a fortune at the stealers .so I'm going to get them repainted instead .has anyone on here tried this route and if so what was the paint code or the closest match?

I had my local painter do mine in Sebring Grey No 229 at 40% Matt. It came out great.

Got mine matched in St. Albans and they kept mix and swatches. No idea what code was though.

hehehe - I sprayed it myself with the best match and thus far its fantastic.

Once you disassemble it, you soak it in Dettol (paint removal) and then clean it up before reparaying. Put a clear coat on it for durability.

This is the best I have to hand. If you can spot the difference you win a watch.
