Default Powdercoating wheels

I'm getting my AP2V3 wheels powder coated. I would like to know the closest color to Kaiser Silver Metallic, or the "CR Rim Color" (NH-546M).

I'm not interested in opinions of what other colors I should get, or the drawbacks of powder coating. I'm looking for someone with experience that can help me find the powder coat color that is the closest to NH-546M. Or someone with a NH-546M swatch they can send me. Thanks.

Nothing? Do we not have any paint/powder experts on the forum?

I am certainly no expert, but I would see if you can find a good powdercoater in your area. You could try getting some touch up paint so you can show him the exact color (Kaiser Silver apparently used to be a color option on the 1997-1999 Acura Legends). Or, they also sell spray cans of it if you wanted to try painting the wheels yourself for a good deal cheaper. It is probably less durable, but safer on the wheels.

I guess it was also a paint option on the newer NSXs as well, did not know that. Honda reaching into the parts bin.
