I have a 06/1979 FJ40. Currently in the process of having the chrome fj60 wheels sandblasted and powdercoated. Need some help with color. I have a spray can of 033 Toyota white that I use for touch ups on white trim pieces. I did not realize how off-white 033 White was until today when I compared 033 to various white color samples at the powder coater. From what I have read the white fj60 rims are cygnus white. However, in most of the pictures I have seen they look to be a crisp and clean white and not so much off-white like my 033 toyota paint (unless my sherwin Williams automotive mixed it wrong).
I brought home two color samples to hold up to my 40. The first sample is a close match to the 033 white and the second is a more pure white (still a little off-white-ish but pretty white). I think the second sample seems to match the nice, freshly painted fj60 rims I see on the Internet but the first sample seems to match the 033 better. I am not sure which color to pick because I am not certain which is more OEM correct?!?
Which is your vote and any thoughts are appreciated
