Quick Question, has anyone repaired their own TL-S wheels?

I am just wondering if anyone has ever repaired the TL-S alloy wheels by themself. I was told by the dealer that it is hard to match paint because its alloy or metal or aluminum. If you guys know how to repair it. Please tell me what paint to use. Ty

Have the same issue here. The rim is $280 new(Retail Price) and $140 to repair at my local dealer. Seems to me it just might be worth getting the new rim.
