You'll make yourself go crazy if a small nick on the wheel bugs you!

I believe it's available through the dealer. I think it's the same color as the standard SS rims.

touch up paint for wheels is generally the same as for the rest of the car, if your rims are painted, just find it like you would your car, a paint code from dealer, or google.

Dealers have the same guys who come airbrush or spray bumpers on the lot touch up painted rims, sometimes even normal aluminum rims too if the paint looks better than the scratch
