Anyone happen to know the paint code or WB number for the touch up paint for the QX1 Competition Gray wheels? Any help you can offer is appreciated.

Wouldn't it be better to buy the QX1 instead of painting them? How much does it cost to paint?

I'm not painting wheels but trying to match the wheel color for a second color accent stripe on a quick silver C6 with QX1 wheels. Someone did find the wheel color code and for those that didn't see that message it's - "Gunmetal Metallic" code WA924. Turns out to be an fairly old paint color first used as an accent paint on Chevy and GMC trucks.

Thanks to all for the assistance. I'll try to post a picture or two when the project is completed.

For me perhaps it is better to get black wheels so the brake dust doesn't show.
