Default thin spoke center caps

Does anyone know the paint color & # to paint the center caps and lug covers. I have 4 center caps & 20 lug covers that I will be selling soon, but was planing on painting them first. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is some info that was posted on the forum a while back:

Can someone please help me find spray Silver Sparkle paint to use in reparing curb rash on my standard painted wheels on my 2001 coupe?

Answer: I've recommended this product before: Dupli-Color Silver "High Performance Wheel Coating" The color and silver particle size seems to match C5 painted wheels perfectly. Most major parts stores will have it. I've used it to cover wheel weight marks very successfully on painted wheels.

This is the paint code that I got here several months ago:
Sparkle Silver P/N WAEQ9967.

Thanks Vetteman.......Really appreciate the info. I did a search for caps but didn't do it for the painted wheels (duhhhh). I had looked at the duplicolor silver for wheels but didn't have a cap with me to make sure. Auto Zone & advance had the WAEQ8867, but not the WAEQ9967. The duplicolor chart had the 8867 in years '99-2004. But Will check for the sparkle silver again in the next few days.
Again, thanks
