Midnight Grey wheels with red stripe

My red stripe is missing or falling off in several spots on a couple of wheels. No contact marks or any reason why. Is there a diy paint I can use to touch it up?

Is the car out of warranty?
I doubt if the red stripe is the exact color as the body 'torch red'.

With no more red than shown in the above pix, I'd consider removing it all and going on.

I completely agree. I own the Q99's. No red stripe.

Nice that the info on paint codes is available. I can remember asking about paint codes for some GM wheels and it was quite the ordeal for the parts department to find out the info.
