Good evening,

I just wanted to know if someone could help me with the type of “finish” that the rims on the A9X’s came from the factory.

Matt, semi-gloss or satin.

I am currently getting my wheels repainted in two pac and I would like to get the most original look possible.

Thanks in advance 👍

Cheers 🥂

It has always looked matt to me. This pic is of a supposedly new L34 rim that was still in its box.

This one is on an unrestored L34. Note that the dark colour is not black, and also how far out the stencil was placed when they painted the silver. The dark paint is 350 Grey 13383 prior to 10/74, and Wheel Charcoal 17473 after that date.
