Well, less that two weeks old, and I've already got a chip out of one of the wheels on my V Red GT 8. Oh well. I read in another thread that the Sunlight Silver RX-8 touchup paint is a possible match for the wheels. Is this true? Has anyone found a better match?

Thanks

 

I used the sunlight silver by suggestion, and it looks okay for small scrathes and chips I guess. It's definitely not a perfect match, but it looks a heck of a lot better than a brown or black spot! I don't know what else you'd use--you could try to eyeball a match at an auto parts store, but that would be tough.

 

I curb rashed my front rim...yep, I was peo'd all day. Took a dremel to it, smoothed it our and used Wal Mart touch up paint ..GM bright silver. Looks pretty good....3 ft test can't tell I did anything to rim.

 

The good news is that any dealer should have guys that fix rim probs. It is cheap an believe me they do the job so you will never find where the damage was. I have had work done on my bmw and am very happy. And I am very **** about things like this...Don't miss any sleep over it, it can be fixed.

 

I just got a $100 quote to touch up 2 wheels. Both are minimal, so I don't know if I'll do it for that price.

 

you should get 'em powder coated

Any other suggestions for touch-up paint?
