Had a flat and need wheel help

I had a flat and i had to make it to the tire shop before lunch and it wasn't a bad flat. I could drive on it.
After they fixed it i notices that the rim and scratched and what not on the sides.

I searched for this topic but couldn't find it.
Is there some wheel touch up paint that i can get to at least ease my mind?

Thanks

I think when ya get a flat, you should pull over and put the spare on, or have the roadside guy plug it.

Did you scratch the hell out of yer rims or what?

what kind of flat, tread wall or side wall?

search this forum for Testors, basically plastic model enamel. Someone found that one of their silvers is a very close match.

Hobby Lobby or Hobby Town should stock it.

Get a new wheel and use the old one for a full size spare. I30s and I35s have full size spares, the Canadians do too, but US spec cars have a toy wheel in the back.
