I have the 18" RS4 Rims that came stock on the ALMS and they are curbed to **** from the 1st owner of the car and I wanted to do this.

Just wondering if anyone else has ever done this and if the paint matches good enough.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext43.shtml">https://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext43.shtml</a</li></ul>

Default It's been done. Someone posted a big write up about it several years ago.
Can't remember though, might have been on a different forum. Search and ye shall find.

I bought silver paint from Pep Boys - matched the top as closely as possible to the rim
