Rim Color? Need to fix curb rash.

Anyone have any idea the color of the rims on the 2010 SH-AWD? I have a nice little curb rash thanks to the wife's crappy parking skills and want to fix them up, but I can't seem to find the color code anywhere.

Does anyone have a color match for these wheels? I contacted two dealers for touch up paint or code they were both unhelpful in fact they acted like it was a stupid questions.

Thanks

^^^

Rule of thumb; dealers only want your business if it's highly profitable & they don't have to do much to get it.

for my 04 aspecs...i went to advance auto, pick up 2 cans of the gunmetal colors that duplicor makes...there's a lighter and a darker one.

i used a dremel with a grinding tip to grind down the vertical gouges of the curbing to make it smooth. I then sprayed the paint into a plastic container and used a small artists brush to apply so it would go on evenly and without streaks.

One of the 2 gunmetals SHOULD match well enough to hide the imperfections well enough to where you won't see them immediately from eye level.

Good luck!
