Also for a custom can of KAV was about $50. I paid $35 for the K11 and 2k clear coat. Had enough clear coat to do both handles and three layers on the front bumper.
Looks great.

See post below on reasonably priced paint. I painted my rims KAV and use automotivetouchup.com paint for nicks and scratches.

Just an FYI, Touch Up Paint and Accessories | AutomotiveTouchup has KAV at a good price and it matches amazing but I agree, the contrast might work out better.

Wish I knew about the duplicolor back in the day when I wanted to fix some curb rash on my OEM wheels
