Has anyone tried touching up the painted rims on a 2011 SHO PP?

My wife had to swerve to avoid an idiot in a parking lot and kissed the curb lightly. Very little damage and I just want to touch up the scrapes with paint. Does Ford sell touch up paint for rims?

Ford told me they did not make a paint for it. They gave me 2 different bottles of touch up paint that were close. ( for free ) I tried them both and either of them matched perfectly. Close and you wouldn't even no it unless you were looking. Local body shops will color match for you and provide a bottle.

Thanks for posting that, I may stop after work tomorrow and ask my local dealer. I was actually considering trying my Pony Wheel touch up silver as it looks close as well.

IMO the body shop route is the best. Plus, you will have touch-up paint for when she does it AGAIN......BTDT!!!!
