With the objective of getting a perfect match for a new set of center 
caps I've looked over Dan Landiss's paint code listings and checked the 
mbcoupes archives.  It appears the Astral Silver was the correct code 
for the bundt wheels but, what is the correct match for the 15 hole or 9 
hole rims that use the plastic center caps?

In the archives, a posting suggests that Audi Crystal Silver is a close 
match to these rims and center caps.  I plan on going to the local paint 
shop to have the code mixed for use with my spray gun set-up rather than 
buy Wurth spray cans etc.

Appreciate any input as I have two sets of rims sitting here that I need 
to repaint now that the media blasting is done.

Regards,

Dick
