Touch up paint for turbo wheels

Does anyone know the best matching brand/color touch up paint for the stock turbo wheels? RR had some rash at purchase and I am tired of looking at it.

Or does someone have a pristine right rear hollow spoke wheel they can sell me cheap!

Thanks.

I would suggest contacting Wheel Enhancement (site sponsor) They have replacement wheels. I've used them before. Good service all the way around. good luck.

Wheel Enhancement is great to work with - I emailed to get a quote on the exact same deal for my driver's side rear wheel and they were very quick to reply. The price for a replacement wheel to match, with exchange, was not bad, considering. Previous owner also rubbed an edge, slight, but noticable to me!

Take it to a good body shop and let them paint it.arctic silver is the color(92u paint code).Should cost about 100 bucks plus rebalancing.

The Wurth product is very close, but not a perfect match. Arctic Silver touch up paint from the dealer is also close, but again not a perfect match. Either can be used for small nicks and chips and they will hide it very well.

Arctic is not the wheel color. Trust me.

It is Wurth spray paint . Paterak uses it . I used it on my wheels. The catch is you need to put a clear coat of Wurth over it. Than it matches
