Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I want to spruce up some curb rash on my 17" straight spoke '02 wheels. They are silver and I am wondering if all Porsche wheels are painted the same standard silver or are they different and all require a specific color code in order to obtain the correct metallic paint? BTW just recieved my new center caps today and they are better than I expected. Nice raised painted shield on silver center cap. Will post pics when I get a warm enough day to install them. They are the ones offered on ebay for $68.00 plus shipping. I am quite pleased. 986geezer

No paint code. Wurth silver paint.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks a lot, I thought it might be something simple like that. Now I have to track down some Wurth Silver but since it has turned cold I will have to wait a bit to work on the wheels. 986geezer
