Since all the repro 15 X 7 wheels are the WRONG color (which I cannot figure out at all why, when there is a plethora of silver powder shades and sheens available) is there anyone who has had a set powdered in the RIGHT color? I am looking for a brand/code of powder that would be the correct sheen, color, txture, etc. Speaking of which, what would the correct sheen, color and texture be, exactly. Thanks, all help is appreciated!
Press hard, four copies.

I worked with the different shades of silver available to the point it drove me crazy. I had several samples done and matched it to several original rims. I found that Bengal silver was the match I was looking for. I powder coated 2 sets of 15 x 7 rims and was very happy with the end results. I'll post the brand later.

Here is the Bengal silver Tiger Drylac brand powder coat number 49/99999 This is what I thought was a match after several months of doing test samples. Several months ago I spoke with the wheel manufacturers about getting the correct color for the mopar wheels. They're response, they didn't care about the color and didn't care if they got it right.
