2003 Titanium Edition Wheel Finish

Maybe somebody can help me out. I'm trying to get a paint code or the name of the finish for the titanium edition wheel. I searched the forums, and I found a thread from 2006 that said that Nissan is keeping it a secret but I wasn't sure if that has changed since then. I just bought a set from a 2003 in really good condition, except for some minor scratches I wanted to touch up.

I can probably find a dark silver paint that will match pretty closely, and the scratches are small but I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this and had any paint color suggestions. Thanks

As far as I know the paint code is still unknown and no one has been able to match it. Someone else chime in here.

Yeah it's still unknown. Good luck finding it and if you do, let us know. Even if you find something close to it, let us know.

if you physically have the wheel take it to a paint shop. They can use a computer to analyze the paint and make a code for it. Otherwise you can visually compare the wheel to a sample chip.

Bummer, I was wondering this as well. I love the look of the TE wheels. I wonder how that finish will look on my 4th gen SE wheels.

That and I take it the 99 SE-L's had a unique wheel finish too with a slight touch of bronze in there or something. Is the paint code for that known?

My brother works at a body shop, and they got a g35c wheels and tried matching it with one of the other ones which was they TE looking one. Im not sure if its the same color as the maxima TE wheels but they couldn’t get it to match. I think it might actually be a special clear coat that’s put on.
