Hi Scott,
I can't speak directly to your question having never purchased anything from 'Wheels and Caps'. However, I had my OEM Viggen wheels refinished via a local shop that the dealer and I agreed upon and they, too, denoted the finish as 'Hyper Silver'. Neither myself, two members of the dealership body shop, or the Service Manager could tell the difference between the refinished wheels and OEM ones. Granted, this is not to suggest or imply that the 'Hyper Silver' denoted by the shop that did mine is the same as the one specified by your source but merely that it is indeed possible to mimic the OEM color, sheen, etc.
Btw, his eBay price is vastly cheaper than what is presented on the company Web site ($270/each vs. $130/each) but at least they are candid about the fact that the wheels are replicas.
Mike
