The sport wheels and the paint on the car color is identical ( i can run outside and double check). I am talking about the 2010 Silver 370z and non 40th edition sport rays. Should work for the base wheels also, not sure about the 2013+ twist style
yah, already tried it all. if i found something i wouldve already posted.
hyper silver is not simple metallic paint with flakes. think of it more of a satin chrome.

so the diy is:

Step1: Fix wheel professionally
Step2: Done!

He is correct. I cleaned a portion of the rim and the fender, and got a good look. They are defiantly different silvers. The paint on the car has a sparkle flake in it, and the rim's color is a darker flat type. Hard to describe, but I'll try to get the colors up here.

I sold my base wheels, but wonder if that color was the same, as I remember it being similar.
