Rash DIY Repair

I found this link
http://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext43.shtml
and was wondering if anyone had used the technique on G35 wheels. Mainly, what kind of paint is the best match for G35 18's? I have a scape that I would love to get fixed.

Unfortunately, the 18's cannot be matched with that plan. At least, nobody has even found a good paint match. Anyone who has done it has repainted the whole wheel so it all matches
