During our last snow storm I managed to minimally damage one wheel on a curb. Anyone know of appropriate aerosol paint which would match the 2016 F Sport wheels? Figure the worst that happens is I don't like the results and ge the wheel finished professionally.

Thanks!

I think (not 100% sure) but the F Sport rims have a black base with a silver topcoat...hence giving it that Hypersilver-like finish. To match the color from one can of paint would be impossible.

these rub marks are fairly small. I am looking for "close enough for government work"

My dealer charges a $125 to fix curb rash. WOrth every penny.

I got two wheels fixed at my dealer. Its $99 each, but I work there so I got both done for $150. Worth every penny.

I couldn't even tell where the rash once was.

*Maybe, if you have more than 1 to fixed, you can get a deal?

And here I was thinking $125 is a good deal!

It cost $170 for an independent shop that fixes wheels for me.

Does your dealer do it themselves or hire contractors to do it? This is insane deal.

save your money and get a nicer wheel later. No one cares or sees minor curb rash especially on a dark wheels with brake dust.

check out this link , I recently had some nicks from a pothole and paint matched perfect, i can't even notice where the nicks are after a coat and a wash.

I did this too and the paint is definitely not a match. It dries much darker then the rim.

Thank you. Will give it a try.
