Paint match for 20" silver wheel curb rash

[platylover]

So the wife curbed the right rear wheel on her 4 day new Model X. I'm going to try and sand it out and touch it up myself. I expect this not to be the first time, as she tends to cut corners a lot and it's unfortunate that this is her lowest profile tire car so far.

Anyone have any success getting a "close enough" paint match using touch-up paint sold at an autoparts store or online?

Thanks.

Did you ever find a. Match for this? looking to fix up my 20" Model x rims as well.
Thanks

No I haven’t gotten around to it yet.

I would like to know the paint color as well. I asked service last time I was in and they had no information.

I curbed my brand new 2019 MX-LR on day 2 or 3. I didn't even know that I curbed the rim - but about half of the rim was gouged. I used a Dremel to smooth out the damage, and then installed RimPro-Tec protectors on all wheels. Wheel Bands is a similar product. Rim damage is no longer visible. I don't think that that the protectors will really protect the rims from a hard curbing, but maybe it will help if I just brush the curb.

There's this from T-Sportline but it's brush on not spray.

From my research, Sonic Silver is my color and available from a couple of sources. Thanks @stevemc
