curb burn on gunmetal wheels

I scraped my new gunmetal tc's right on the outer lip....two scratches right to the white meat.

I've curbed black wheels a few times...fixed by masking and painting. Looked pretty damn close to perfect after that. I'd image this is a similar scenario, but finding a color to match will be harder.

There are usually gunmetal kits for allow wheels. It's like those paint touch up kits but for wheels instead. A google search should bring up good results. I've seen a few of them on ebay as well.
