Default Wheel Paint CE

Is the Sebring Silver paint on the 1996 Collectors Edition the exact same as what is on the 5 spoke wheel? There is this huge gash on my wheel that I need to fix. Has anyone had this problem before? It is a relatively easy fix but I need the closest color match.

Hmmm, always thought it was. Easiest way to check would be to pop a center cap off & compare it to the body color. I can tell you it's not Duplicolor's Silver Wheel Paint (which is what I used to refinish my CE's rims)
