Default Touch-up paint for wheels + change holder

Looking for some silver touch-up paint for my stock S4 wheels. Dealer tells me it is not available and that I need to go to a body shop. Anyone know a source for touch-up paint?

Got a nasty scratch from some re-tread on my hood. Used the dealer touch-up kit for this one...the color matches, but you can still see the scratch...is there an easy way to fill-in the scratch before painting to make it less noticable?

Also, I thought I read on this site about a change holder that fits in the armrest chamber - anyone have info or a part number?

Default For wheels I used Wurth silver wheel spraypaint followed by clearcoat

Use dremel to smooth. Sand and scrub. Mask carefully. Wet sand. Clearcoat. Wet sand.

Matches perfectly.<p>'00 Silver S4

Default Try Griot's garage. I think they private label Wurths. Page 25 of latest catalog.
