R3 BBS Stock Rim Repair

Hey Guys, I have a 2009 RX8 R3, stock rims. I have some rock chips on the rims from everyday driving, and some minor curb rash on one of them (don't ask!). I was wondering if anyone has attempted repair of these rims, and knows where to buy the finish (similar to touch up paint) for these rims. Or, if someone knows the color code of these rims?

I just wanted to see what others have done here in terms of repair, touch up, or anything along those lines with the stock R3 Wheels.

Thanks!

I found out the hard way that there is very little info to be had with these wheels. I had a little scratch on one of mine that was bugging me, and I just had a detail shop give it to their wheel guy while they were cleaning up the car. It took about two hours and looked good as new. I would imagine any pro can do this kind of thing easily. I paid about $90 as I recall.
