  • Refurb Colours

    I know specific car colours are cataloged but in the instance of refurb colour for the silver front grill and wheel trims elude me. I can’t find the Rover specifics for these. Can any body point me in the direction of the shade of silver required.

    Hmmmm......that will probably be an 'RAL' number on the original component spec sheet supplied to its manufacturer. The only paint code I know of for 'trim' is the Sparkle Silver used on later Rover Group alloy wheels.

    The best way around this would be to get hold of a new old stock wheeltrim, for example, and take it to a paint supplier who can scan it.
