Default AP2V3 -> CR wheels?

Since CR wheels are rather hard to come by can I have AP2V3s painted to the same color as CR wheels?

I'd powder coat them personally. Much more durable finish.

Powdercoating may lower the strength of the wheel and you're less likely to get an exact color match.

Painting costs a bit more. The color is "Kaiser Silver".

Alright, how does that work, can I just give them the CR wheel paint code?

Powder coating definitely does not lower the strength of the wheel.

If needing to 100% paint match then paint is your only option as you cant math paint codes with powder coating.

Here's the paint code for kaiser Silver, NH-546M. You may have to buy the matching center caps.

Is Kaiser Silver a dead on match? This is the NSX color, correct?
