Default Wheel paint color?

Hi everyone...does anyone know what paint color is best for a match to the stock silver wheels - 10 spoke. My wife curbed one of the wheels and I feel I can easily do the repair if I have the proper paint color. I have already done a lot of research and it seems some people have had good luck with the Honda Starlight Silver Metallic color. Anyone else have any further suggestions? Thanks!

There is none. All 4 wheels have to be done to match

I'll follow-up with the same question. I have a bit of curb rash on my base stock rims that I'd like to patch myself. I can putty and sand but have no clue what touch up paint to purchase. Anyone with a paint code or dupli-color that's a half decent match? Anything will be better than the curb rash but it would be nice to be get sorta close. Thanks.

the f-sport wheels and the ten-spoke base wheels are different colors, though, so i'd go with the paint pen listed a few posts above rather than what's listed in the f-sport wheel write-up.
