What ZR1s? I might be really tripping here but I didn't know any ZR1s came from GM with gunmetal paint. Like I said though, I could be terribly wrong. Or are you talking about the wheels on the new ZR1 or something?

Have you tried contacting Tomz Wheels or OE Wheels? I know those are the 2 main manufacturers of the replica wheels, one of the two should be able to give you an answer.

Damn that sucks man. But OE doesn't make them anymore, nor does anyone else. I was just looking for the paint. Like I said before, I already found the paint I want. Thanks for the help though.
