'18 ASpec wheel paint - Shark Grey?
Anyone find any good touch up paint matches for the 19" Aspec Shark Grey wheel color yet? Got some curb rashes that I wanted to sand down and repaint.

Thanks.

Just went through this myself... The Wheel is power coated and the touch up paint looked like shit. I had to get the wheel refinished and re-power coated

No kidding. I try to be extra careful and those planter islands in a grocery store parking lot got me.

I just rubbed my 19 ASPEC and when I called dealer to order new shell he has a bunch of new pulls for $200 each. I grabbed one and tempted to pick up a spare one at that price. I had wheels on my 04 repaired back in the day and was never happy, you could always tell. If anyone is interested it is Jackson Acura in Georgia. I am sure they can ship them as the have them in boxes.

I have no idea what that means. Are they selling the rims for $200 each? If so, that's not bad at all. . .

Sorry auto correct. These are complete wheels, with center cap, no TPMS. Dealer has new pulls for $200 each. I believe he said he has 7 left.

I used Honda's touch up paint for Modern Steel Metallic on my TLX A-Spec wheel and it was pretty darn close! Close enough that I really have to look for it.
