I have the same issue, and would either like to know the paint code, or where I could purchase replacement center pieces for these wheels. This is NOT the pie plates but the later inserts.

I would call a nearby company that refurbishes wheels and get some touch up paint from them. They will be able to get you fixed up exactly especially if it is a two step paint.

sadly I have tried that with 2 companies, neither has the paint code. I had a paint company do a photo ( called a kodak digital ) and do a test sample and it came out wrong.I have had wheels on other cars ( domestic ) fixed before and never had a problem.

I'm talking a local wheel repair shop you can go into. They are more prevalent thank most people think.
