The curse of the GTR gunmetal color..2-3 part process it seems no one can identify. Specialty wheel painters scan match the color fairly well but I never found an OE color or touch up that looked very close.

Depends which GT-R color you want also. I think the winter gray they use is easy to find. The darker gray I think someone found a color code. But that near-black is the one I at least have not heard of anyone finding. Although I stopped looking over a year ago.
Stu. Where can I get those Infiniti caps? Do they fit the tsw vortex rims? Thanks
These are the caps you want. G has them for sure, maybe M too.

I got mine from the Infiniti dealer. I think they are around $30 each. No idea if they fit those wheels, but you could take the center caps to the dealer to compare. That's what I did, and when I took that pic.

I have an 08 Platinum Graphite (K51) FX35 with 09 GT-R wheels. When I got the Infiniti G35 caps, I wanted to paint them to match the wheels too. What I found was a paint that not only matched the wheels (I took in one of the Nissan caps) but it turned out to match my FX paint too!!! Score! So close to the paint that besides the center caps, I painted my license plate frame too and it's so damn close that it hurts! I was very pleased!
And I was shocked because I found the paint at Pep Boys (here in Southern California) and it was paint that was made to duplicate Original GM Colors! It's called Dupli-Color "Perfect Match" and I got the BGM0347 Medium Gray Met.
I hope that rambling helps someone out there! Thanks for "listening"!

Do you have the dark grey 09 wheels or the light ones?

Just for anyone looking for Infiniti branded caps that fit the GTR wheels, they're 54mm overall diameter on the face and 51mm diameter from the outside of one tab to the opposite outside tab.
Nissan GTR Caps:
Infiniti Caps - Silver with Chrome logo (These are the same as the GTR caps above but with Infiniti logos instead, key is to look at this number on the back 40342-AU510):
