OEM Wheel touch-up color - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

TommyFive · 07-27-2015, 09:03 PM

Just picked up a second set of OEM wheels, but the inner barrels are a little gouged and scratched. I'm going to file down the gouges and use touch-up paint where paint is missing, but my Subaru dealer won't tell me the paint code for the wheels.

Anyone have the paint code information for the OEM wheels? Thanks!

Call Subaru

I used Toyota 1E0 on the painted part. Looks pretty close. I had some touch up left over from my flint mica Yaris sedan.

I did. They claimed to not be able to get the paint code from SOA.

I wonder if the Subaru Dark Grey Metallic would be a good fit for it... Thanks!

See if you can find someone local with that color touch up, and ask to try a dab.

It has metallic flake in the paint so at least something with metalic in it or it will stand out even more. I'd say just drive up to the dealer an grab the auto body manager and have him take a look and see if he would match it with something close. Not giving you a paint code is not good customer service. If you call scion customer support they will help you also. They are pretty good. http://www.scion.com/contact/

or @Scion on Twitter, they read and respond to their Tweets just don't say you have a Subaru you have an FR-S
