repairing/touching up scratches on wheels?

I just bought a set of 17" Infiniti G35 Sedan wheels from someone to use on my 2002 Maxima GXE. The wheels have some scratches and I'd like to touch them up. What's the best way to go about doing this? Anyone know the closest paint color match for these wheels?

Thanks!

Great, thanks!

Does the paint mentioned on that site match up with the Infiniti 17" wheels? Looks pretty close. Do any local stores sell that paint?

Thanks again!

it does look pretty close, what can you lose by trying? As for any local stores having it, that's a research you'll have to do yourself my friend!
