326M Alloy Wheel Paint Code

[mcmnathan]

Anyone know the paint code for 19" 326M alloys?

I do not know the code, but I have used this pen for BMW wheel touch ups . I am sure that a similar paint pen is available in the UK

Would also like to know. If the paint is Ferric Grey A80 then there are touch up paints on Ebay for £4.99.
Scratch Doctor also do a BMW Alloy Repair kit for £8.95, but don't list the paint code.
If we can establish if A80 is the code then I'll buy the Scratch Doctor Kit and if the paint don't match get the £4.99 touch up as well.
Have a few nasty marks on my Front Wheels that aren't bothering me too much but would like to have a go at improving them.

Cheers for that Lynchy.....will order the scratch Doctor kit and fall back on the touch up paint if the colour match is off.

I saw it mate and I appreciated the gesture,they do look nice though.I wasn't sure about having them painted like that but glad I did.Cost a bloody fortune,especially after I kurbed 2 of them soon after :headbang:

For what it's worth bmw only list A80 for ferric grey. They have no paint code for Ferric grey 2 which was introduced in 2012 ish as used on M135i .If it doesn't match try B55 this is the later paint code & can be obtained from Autocolourz.

Mines a 2010 so hopefully A80. Thanks Chris.

Ah but he said

He didn't say that was the colour of the wheel just that A80 was Ferric Grey, which you already knew and now

Which would indicate you've ordered the wrong colour :thumbsdown:

Need a minor repair to one of my 326M alloy wheels which I can easily do myself and from reading this thread, it would seem the paint colour I need is DECOR SILVER 2 - CODE : B20. The car concerned is a 2014 model.
Can anyone confirm that I have the right colour and is it only available from BMW or is it easily obtainable from a paint specialist or even Halfords?

I used the Scratch Doctor kit and was a good match on my 326's.

Thanks Jimbo, think I'll give it a go.

Thanks Jimbo, think I'll give it a go.

I had some quite nasty kerbing on my N/S front and this masked it very well.
It's obviously a repair if you get up close but I didn't spend hours on it.
Certainly cheaper than a refurb that I'll get done at sometime but want to see how the 326's hold up on the non RFT's before committing.
