If it bothers you and LR parts can’t help and they don’t need a full refurb, I’d drive it to a recommended alloy refurb repairer experienced at refurbishing those type wheels and would ask if they could make me a little pot of touch up paint. |

Thanks. Yes, they don't need a refurb. It's just on one of my wheels there is a little chip next to one of the wheel nuts where someone has been a bit careless with the wheel brace. Kev

I’ve wrapped Duct tape a couple of times around the end of my wheel brace and leave it on to stop that kind of thing happening |

Bonnati Grey is quite close from memory... |

Cheers Craig. I'm wondering how close Corris Grey would be. I need to order a touch up pot for the L405 because it's always useful to have. I still have some Stornoway Grey left from my L320 but I think that would be too light. Kev

Good shout as Corris is quite dark compared to Orkney or Stornaway |

So just to report back. Corris grey is a good colour match on the wheels. I dabbed it on a few chips and they can be hardly seen now. Kev
