What color are those gray vette wheels?

Im getting my wheels refinished and would like them in that color. Its a nice deep but light gray, comes on vettes and maseratis. Im looking for a spraypaint that matches that as close as possible.

Sorry if its the wrong forum. I figured since so many of you have vettes this would be a good place to ask.

I see its called "competition gray". Im guessing towerpaint would be the best place?

Competition Grey is the darker grey offering on Vettes, not sure of the actual paints name from manufacturer however.

This is an exact match to the BMW wheel in the picture.

I used this combo to touch up some Audi wheels and was very pleased. Follow the directions and they come out perfect.

Whoops, lol, I now see the BMW pic is in your signature section.

Hmmm. I saw gray split-spokes on a car at Detailfest. But they seemed lighter than that pic.

Its darker than this pic, but lighter than the pic killr posted. They look like a steel gray in person.

Vettes offer a couple colors, silver (painted), comp grey (dark one pictured), high polished (creamy polish), and chrome. The original Z06 wheels pictured above from the C5 were a bit lighter than the newer comp offering.

Is comp gray gonna be lighter than what I have now? sorry for the million n one questions.

not much ... they look like "clean" dirty wheels up close. I wish I could describe it better.
