Hi,
I recently purchased a set of 02 Sport mags that need to be partially repainted and I can't find the paint code for the "champagne" colour anywhere despite numerous attempts,searches and calls to the stealership. Does some kind soul have it by chance? Thanks

Stickies..

I might not have been clear in my initial post..the information I'm looking for is not in the stickies so here's a bit more detail.
I have a 1999 Maxima and I just purchased a used set of mags for a 2002 I35-I don't have an I35 thus no sticker indicating the mag colour code,hence my posting. The mags,even in the options listings I have tracked down for the 02-04 I35 ,as well as all aftermarket suppliers of the OEM mag,list the mag colour as "champagne".Champagne does not exist in the Nissan or Infinity colours produced for the period in question,so ...I'm hoping someone 1)has an I35 Sport and can provide the accent colour code for the mag from their I35 Sport door sticker, or 2)someone has access to an Infinity database that I don't and can provide the code or 3) someone has repainted a set of I35 Sport mags and has the correct mag colour code. Thanks again
P.S. and ty to I30ds for re-opening the thread.

The champagne color seems to be relatively rare. I've only seen a handful.

So far as I know, Nissan/Infiniti does not provide color codes for wheel colors. Your best bet will be to take it to a body or paint shop and have them try to match the color as best they can. Alternatively, wheel repair services have to match wheel color all the time in the course of their repairs, so they might be a bit better equipped to do it.

Because so few I35 Sports were sold, the champagne colored wheels (which only came on Sport models) are rare. Some dealers don't even know a sport package existed for the I35 (like my local dealer when I tried to see if they could find me one before I bought my I30). I'd say find a wheel repair service and just have them match the color.

Thanks guys,I appreciate your responses. When I called my local Infiniti dealership they actually ended up referring me to the mag repair service they use,suggesting they might be willing to provide a color code-they in turn (and to be fair,I don't blame them) declined,stating they don't provide that info. I may end up having a bodyshop repaint the darn things,but I was trying the DIY route first ...I'm amazed Infinity can't provide the info.

There may not be a color code per se for the wheels, which could be an issue. Try calling Infiniti corporate customer service and see if they can help. I wish I could get my hands on a set of those I35 sport wheels for my I30.

Well,spent 20 minutes on the phone with Infiniti yesterday-they are willing but unable to provide a colour,doesn't seem to be in their database. The paint match or refinisher route it is-thanks again for your inputs.
