Where to get OEM wheel paint for GSR

Hey all... posted this in paint and detailing section, but didn't get any responses yet. I thought this might be a better place to ask. Where can I get some OEM wheel paint or do I have to use dupli-color or something like that?

Call Enkei for the paint code, if there is one. Or take it to a wheel fix it place and for like 50-100 bucks, they will make your damaged wheel look brand new.

If you have a scratch, or have curbed the wheel, painting it will not hide the damage. You would have to fill the damage with aluminum, prep, sand, polish, possible paint, then clear. How much damage are we talking about? Maybe a pic would be nice.

It was a very slight curbing... and yes it's been filled already... everything has been taken care of but the paint, so I want to find something that matches.
