I am refinishing the Mahle alloy wheels on a 74 LE. The current finish of the silver area looks like it is bare metal with the center painted yellow (in my case black). I thought the Mahles were painted silver while the Fuch alloys were bare metal.
What is the original finish of the 4 spoke Mahle alloy for the Bumblebee Limited Edition? Yellow = Sunflower Yellow (L13K) Silver = ????????? Thanks, j. |
