My Ride: 2006 BMW 530I
Model Year: 530i
Default Touching up peeling interior paint

Hey guys,

Attached is the link to BMW Colorbond Interior Spray Paint: BMW Parts and BMW Accessories | Bavarian Autosport

My car is a 2006 titantium silver 530i with gray interior. I want to paint the covers of my window switches and touch up part of the side trim of my car seat.

BAVARIAN Autosport Website shows three shades of gray. Can someone with better judgement for colors or same car colors, please tell me which one is most closest? Is it BMW Gray 88 UP, Ghost Gray or Medium Gray 2007?

Thanks for your help!

Daniel

PS: The picture is not very clear. Please kindly go to the website for better details.

Default Save the money and effort

I tried Color Bond on the interior of my titanium/gray 2006 330xi the weekend. Ghost Gray. Way off color. I emailed Bavarian Auto Sports for advice for the correct color. They replied that Color Bond does not have a good match for my gray, to contact a local upholstery shop.

I've been scouring other forums to see what others are using. I've found them using A Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch 2X satin granite and SEM products 15393 Med. Gray. I haven't tried these, just reporting what I've found.

Thanks for the info! I have a can of Ghost Gray that I bought over a year ago, but have not used it. lol

So, have you tried anything else that matched well? :-)
