Default anybody know where i can get paint?

a little back story, i was detailing my car today and noticed some new curb rash. its pretty bad too. this is about as much rash as i can handle soi want to recondition my rims. specifically, they are 17" oem celebration rims. i want as close to oem paint as possible so the cover matches. anybody got any ideas?

would you consider a different color? if your going to be redoing them all over anyhow, is there something you have always wanted or something? maybe gunmetal? or just a slightly different color that no one will probably be able to notice if your doing all 4 anyways?

idk just a thought! theres probably a color code for oem rs4 rims somewhere
