New to the forum so this may have been addressed.
I have some curb rash on the rim of my '16 is350 F Sport. Has anyone discovered any touch up paint for these rims? Lexus & Toyota tell me they do not have a product.

touch up paint will not hide curb rash. I would just get it repaired by a local wheel shop.

If you didn't get the wheel coverage from Lexus the best bet is a local shop. It's not that expensive unless you royally ****ed up your wheel.

You don't tip it's a specific service for a pacific piece of damage. You don't tip car repairmen do you? The best thing you can do is use them in the future if you need to, of course that's if they do a good job and send your friends there.
