Help! I curbed my Shinka rims today after Father's Day lunch! I was thinking about fixing them myself but I need to know the color code to match it. Anyone know this? I've been searching all day but it seems to be kinda rare. It's the dark silver alloys to be precise.

I want to try this out..

I'm also looking for the Shinka color code.

I recently got a set of RX8's for my MazdaSpeed 3 and since the car will be sitting for another month, and the fact that the rims I got are all a little banged up with paint chips, I'd like to repaint them, I just need the color code.

Anyone?

 

what is a shinka rim....ive never heard of such a thing....there is the standard auto 16 inchers and then the 6spd manual 18 inchers....am i missing something

 

if you are talking about these rims i think you are up ***** creek. get a professional to fix them.

the shinka rims are the 18" stockers but just polished

 

ohhh ok, cool makes sence now. yeah you will probably need a professional shop to fix it. you don't want to damage your rims more than they already are. isn't it only like 90 bucks a wheel to fix. a fair price for perfection imo

 

Man, this was an older post I did awhile back but thanks for looking out.

Just to update this thread I had to move to Vegas and I have come to terms with my curbed rims, rock chips and cracked windshield from driving in these godforsaken highways.

But to answer your question Ivory8 they look like this:

They are slightly darker than the stockers but not the chrome that kersh4w posted. I could show you in person if you want just let me know.

 

Yep that's what I was talking about. Hmm.
