Post Fx2 rims

Good day F150 Forum,
I'm new to this word and I have a question if anyone can help me out. 3 weeks ago I purchased a 2011 ford fx2, tuxedo black the works, I have sinced scratched my right rear rim. Does anyone know the color code for this particular wheel. It's the 20" gray type. I ordered a "Hypersilver" replacement wheel, and when it arrived from fed ex, it was the wrong color. Does anyone have any information about this topic?

This gives you a great excuse to put some aftermarket wheels on your truck.

it's going to be hard to match the paint on factory wheels, unless you can get touch-up paint for them from the dealer, which I HIGHLY doubt they sell...


but I have seen "kits" that apparently color match wheel paint; I think Duplicolor makes one

I searched all over for a rim, but I found a nation wide mobile dent repair service named " colorbydesign" and they made my rim jus like factory for not even a fraction of the cost for a new rim.

Thumbs up 2011 Ford FX2 rim

Firehouse88, I hade the same problem. Dealership repaired a flat and scratched rim. When the new one came in, it was a lighter shade. The original rims are more of a bronze/pewter color. The new one is more of a silver color. Dealership says that they can't find a rim to match and want to give me 4 silver looking rims. I rather the original color, which matches the truck.

Who repaired your rim and what is the contact number? Seems like you were satified with the results.
