Hey everyone! I'm new here and I had a little question to ask.

I was driving up to my apartment complex parking lot and the Camry next to me refused to let me get over to pull in. When I finally got ahead of her, she sped up so fast I seriously thought she would rear end me. I pulled in as quickly as I could and as a result got some nice curb rash on my back right rim. I JUST got this car and even though the damage is very minimal, I'm obsessing over it.

I feel pretty confident that I can fix it myself using the sand, putty, paint method but I'm wondering what color wheel paint I need. I can't post a pic or link but they're just the stock 17" alloy wheels. Also, where exactly do I get the paint? Pep Boys?

Thanks everyone!
