265 Colour Code?

Discussion in 'Exterior & Bodywork' started by OiNK, Jun 23, 2015.

  1. Guys,

    Is there an official colour code for the black Tibor wheels that come on the 265 cup?
     
  2. Anyone know if this exists?

    I know they exist but I have never been able to find them. Is it just for information/geek points you want it or do you have work requiring it?
     
  4. I would like a couple of them refurbed, want them done properly and if a code existed then it would be handy to know it :smile:

    A good paint shop will be able to match it with ease but i'll bang a request thru to Renault Technical for you later.
     
  6. Funny thing is, I got one wheel refurbed through my Renault dealer, and it most definitely is not a match, it is a bit more matt than the others, quite frustrating.

    Appreciate your help.

    That'll be because they used a cheap mobile repairer rather than a proper painter.
     
  8. Despite a few helpful people offering codes on various forums I wanted it straight from the horses mouth , I had Renault UK on the case of finding the exact colour match for my 19" Steev black gloss with red rim wheels.
    The official answer was 'sorry nobody knows' ....crazy
    I had http://www.lepsons.com/ refurb a wheel and they didn't recognise any of the colour codes people had suggested, in the end I went with their best guess of a powder coat match, guess what, it didn't match one bit. In the end they had to strip it again and actually paint it to match, in fairness it now matches perfectly.
    what a pain just for a wheel!
     
  9. I had a similar problem.....had taken my kerbed Tibor wheel to Renault and gave them it back twice due to such a poor job....the third time it was perfect but I suspect they gave it to a local bodyshop / painter to do it correctly.
