Touch Up Paint for '94-96 Wheels

[nsxtasy]

Here's something I haven't seen posted here before, and it's not in the FAQ.

Did you know that you can buy touch-up paint at your Acura dealer for the Blades Silver color (kind of a gunmetal gray) that was used for the OEM wheels for '94-96? The color code is NH-95M.

EDIT - THIS IS WRONG. SEE BELOW.

Excellent.

Would you have a color number for the paint on the dash trim pieces.

 

[nsxtasy]

No, sorry.

what about the newer blades, say 2000?

The '97-01 wheels are finished in a color called Solaris Silver. I'm not sure - are those painted, or is it just a clearcoat over metal?

Looks like a clear coat over metal. Anyone know of a touch-up kit for the 97-01?

Ah, crap! You tell me this after I got my whole rim repainted!!!!

Ken, am I wrong or you swapped the wheel's color names (Blades/Solaris)?


We have an interesting FAQ on this site, here's a page from it: http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/General/changesbyyear.htm

Giuseppe is correct. I made an error.

Touch-up paint is available for BOTH colors of 16"/17" wheels:

'94-96 Solaris Silver NH-536M
'97-01 Blades Silver NH-95M

My apologies.

Here's a comment about the '97-01 Blades Silver wheels, from the tech list:

"If my feeble memory is correct the sides of the spokes are painted and the face is machined. Then the complete wheel is clear coated."
