A small CHIP ON A WHEEL.

I just noticed a very small chip on my front left rim. I remember someone had found a touch up that matched our stock 18 rim's color. I just can't seem to find that post. If someone would be kind enough to re-post it, I would appreciate it. The chip is very small in shape, but I can see black (the paint must be completely stripped). Please help.

Thanks.

Re: A small CHIP ON A WHEEL.

One more question:
Is there a way to polish this small chip after the touch up? Would you recommended it? It's really really small, but yet noticable. I think the dealer damaged it after the oil change today. I don't want to be a pain and take it back for them to fix it, 'cause it's really small. It's the size of a roller ball on a pen, but it's really annoying.

I actually have this same problem from the dealer as well. I would also like to know where to get that touchup paint. The dealer says nothing like that color exists, but I am sure they are wrong.

Yeah the dealer did it to my rim too, a small chip. I just called them and they said they will take care of it.

Re: A small CHIP ON A WHEEL.

I am taking it back on Friday, because the door rattle is still there. I will mention the rim as well, but I am not getting my hopes up. I am sure they will say they didn't do it. I really wish I could have touched it up myself. I know there is something out there, but I still can't find it in this forum.
