Default Kerbed within 3 miles, Aaaaahhhhhhh

Hi to you all, a newbie as you will see and looking for some advice.

After just having had my new Ultraleggeras fitted to my WRX SL I've managed to kerb a wheel already, they are described as Crystal (look like silver to me!) just wondered if anyone knows of a decent touch up kit, the scuffing is only very minor.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I would say a touch up wont cut it for a good finish as you wont be able to marry up with the shiny lacquer, unless you are really good and fancy rubbing it down etc.
I would get a quote from a smart repairer, one from recommendation, they do not charge the earth and can do a near perfect job from what I have seen.
Remember, it will happen again! Bloody kerbs

Wait for the summer then get it done you are more than likely to do it again in this bloody weather and if the car is still new to you.
