    Hello All, is there a good touch up paint available that matches the grey color on the 328 spare tire rim and the black color along the bottom of the car? I have an '88 328 GTS and would like to do some touch up work.

    Not sure about the spare tire paint but I use SEM 39143 Trim black for the lower black valence. It dries fast and holds up really well in the weather.

    Thanks for the response. Where do you find this paint?

    Amazon has it, though your friendly neighborhood auto paint shop will have it also. Hope this helps!

    I tried the Argento and it is not correct for my 1988 Mondial 3.2. Too dark. Maybe applies to earlier year Ferrari's.

    The best match I have found is the Wurth paints:

    Black Trim: Flexitrim Satin Black 089099000-u
    Wheels: Silver Wheel Paint 1892181

    The trim paint is indistiguishable from stock, and the flex property would work well on the lower car as there is an underlying flexible stone chip coating that will itself flex a bit. The wheel paint is also as good a match as is likely possible, maybe a tad more metallic grain than stock but probably means the can needs a good shaking, I often touch up wheel chips around the lug bolts area with a small chip brush and probably don't agitate the can as long as I would if actually spraying.
