OEM Wheel Touch-Up Paint?

Hey GEN6 peeps,

So I noticed I got a huge rock chip on my passanger front wheel. I have the 16' RS Nightfall Grey W/ Gray accent wheels.

Is there a way to touch up the wheels? Thanks everyone.

Here is a photo of my wheel color.

I have the same wheels and have done the job.

Start with Dremel tool attachment #952 cone shaped aluminum oxide grinding stone and grind down the burrs the best you can. Doesnt have to be completely smooth just rounded.

Change to the #413 sanding disk and try to round it perfectly as you can.

Get some metal filler epoxy and try to form a new "rim" by molding the epoxy as it hardens.

Wet sand lightly with 1200 grit and then 2500 grit.

I used touch up paint Subaru 262 Quicksilver ASU 1345.

Have fun!!! It's an easy fix.
