Black Wheel Paint Pen

I remember someone mentioning in a thread, a paint pen for touching up wheels. I have a curb nibble of unknown origin (at least no one will admit to it) that I need to repair. I have the black Challenge wheels. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

You can go to Auto Zone, Advance, or Pep Boys and buy DupliColor "Universal Black". I had black wheels on my 2010 R56 and used it a couple of times to fix "bites" on a wheel. Worked perfectly and you get the choice of brush or pen with it.

There is touch up paint for certain wheels.

http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/Mini_Paint_Wheels/


Look like Gray Metallic, Matt Black, and Reflex Silver Metallic for wheels. They used to have Anthracite but its NLA.


Here is all the touch up colors and there paint codes.

Here are some paint colors for Black.

Astro Black or Jet Black II might be the closest to the black JCW challenge wheels paint.
