Hey guys what's up? I just recently purchased a full set of S14 SE alloys and they are on good shape except for a couple of the center caps. So, my question is what type of silver paint(spray can/autozone) would best match the original color of the alloys? Thanks in advance for any help.

the only way your going to find out is buying all the silver spray paint and making a spray out card for each one and comparing to the color your trying to match

I guess that's one way of doing it. I'm a bit suprised that nissan doesn't have a paint code for their alloys. I wouldn't want to respray them all just to match 2 centers.

Hey sorry to bump an old thread but, I do believe this is helpfull. To answer my own question the silver paint that most closely matches SE alloys is Silver Frost Metallic duplicolor sray can. Here is a pic.
