19" RAYS Touch Up Paint

spearfish25 · 04-30-2009, 06:28 PM

Does anyone know where I can get some touch up paint that will match my stock 19" RAYS? I have a very slight curb-rash on one rim that I want to gently sand and repaint.

ouch man... you might just wanna wait it out and get your wheels refinished eventually... just my 2c... maybe powdercoat it?

Yep, when I did it I felt like getting out of the car and bashing my head into the cement curb too. The rash is really tiny but knowing it's there annoys me to high he((. It does look simple to gently sand the rough edge down, possibly build it up to contour again and then touch up paint it with it masked off. I'm just reluctant to have the whole rim sanded and painted when it's a tiny spot affected.

Those 19" rims that come as an optional OEM wheel look pretty sweet - in Australia we don't even have an option to get those, only the butt ugly 18" are available here - damn.
Hope you get the scratches out, but I would just powder coat them black.

I've got a little scratch that I'd like to fix up. Did you ever get any touch-up paint. I was just the dealership and forgot to ask them?
Thanks.
