Has anyone figured out if there is an off the shelf spray paint that matches RS4 replica rims?

Default Preval sprayer + OEM paint from your local PPG/DuPont/whatever supplier.

I have found these to work much better than they should for painting small stuff. Interior pieces, wheels, trim whatever. Just go to your local autobody supply house(ours happens to be a NAPA), and have them mix you up a couple ounces of the real stuff. Reduce it down, pour it in your sprayer....and go to town. It will need clearcoat once dry. You could even cheap out and get some in a rattlecan. I'd try to get a higher end, name brand clear at best though.

oh, and those Preval Sprayers can be found at just about any hardware store for around $14....last I checked.
