i did see a how to that was linked to like a bmw forum or something like that.....let me see if i can find it...

basically, it was grind down the rash with a dremel tool and then mask everything off except the rash and primer then paint then buff, then paint, then buff again..

I was at autozone and duplicolor has a wheel paint called HIGH Performance wheel coating.

The color: SILVER looks perfect for 06+ wheels..

they come in a spray can:

I used the duplicolor: GRAPHITE - shown below on my Nissan Xterra set of off road only wheels..
