A mystery I'm afraid,same as the satin black used on parts of the VXR.

Sorry Mani,I meant that I'm unable to find out the colour code for the VXR Satin Black as well as the lightning yellows wheel finish being unknown.Not that they are the same.

the LY wheels are a gold flecked metallic dark brown, from the Opel/Vauxhall range of paints. i managed to get an exact match, from the Halford's ' mix to match' book, about eigthteen months ago. ask the guys at Courtneys if they have remembered the paint code or name yet - i had a conversation with them about this ten days ago - they said it was the same colour as put on the top of the range Astra a few years ago.

Top of the range Astra Mk3(F) CDX & Corsa B CDX was a colour called 'Graphite'.Good thinking,it could be close but I'd be suprised if it was a match.

Might also be worth you speaking to Warwick Shubrook in Diss (Dave). When i had my bit of misfortune they couldn't get the LY wheel so had to get a noemal NA wheel and spray it. Colour looks OK
