Paint code for R32 Aristo's ???

[Speed]

Anyone know the standard paint code for the R32 Aristo's ?

Cheers

There is a bit off confusion over this subject.

There is a listing for "Bright Chrome" colour with 88Z added to part number of wheel (i.e. colour code) from 05/02 to 06/06

However for the RHD UK vehicles it is listed as 8Z8 "Diamond Silver" from 03/03 to 06/06

So whether we got the UK spec colour or not I do not know, but it will be either one of these colours.

Diamond Silver was also the old silver Mk 2 Golf colour by the way.

Thanks Graeme,

Will get samples of both from my paint shop and post the result.

Pretty sure oz got US spec cars, just in RHD, so odds on it'd be the bright chrome.

having had a diamond silver mk1 in the past i can say for sure it definitely isn't diamond silver, not really what id call chrome either though, i painted mine gunmetal

cool id go for bright chrome too, ill have to go around and get prices now!, i know there not going to have the same colour, but i'll have to try and get close to it. gunmetal is an idea too, wouldn't get black tho, blends in to the tire too much ..

Apologies for the late reply.

Short answer is I havn't painted mine yet. Been working on the house seven days a week for the past 10 weeks.

My Gti is looking very sad at the mo.
Hope to give her some love in about a months time, then register before Chrissy, if doable...

We'll just put my r32 aristo's into paint today @ Wheel Solutions located in Richmond, Vic. Hopefully they will look amazing once done . Ill post some photos up when they are done in the next couple of days. (don't know how yet, but i should be able to figure it out) . Stayed with the original silver chrome shadow.
