Curb Rash!
Got the right rear 20" Stock Silver wheel on my C7 too close to the curb and scratched a small area of the paint. I have sanded it smooth and need to know what paint/brand to use as matching touch-up. Went to O'Reilly Auto Parts yesterday and couldn't find one that looked right. Any help is appreciated!

I went through this with my wheels - stock 18/19. The color code for the non-Z51 wheels is GM SPARKLE SILVER METALLIC WA9967, but the Z51 color may be ULTRA SILVER WA8867-W. You will also need clear coat - both paints dry flat.
BTW- I had some deep scratches on both passenger side wheels and they now look perfect. Just takes time and patience. Good Luck.

My wife's Porsche Boxter seems to be very prone to road rash. The wheel repair guy the dealer uses does a fantastic job of repairing the damage. Road rash cost around $100. A dented wheel is around $250-$300. That is much cheaper than the cost so a new mag wheel!
