According to him, the best that he can do is 90-95% OEM color matching and if anyone else says that they can do 100% color matching then they're lying. Any truth to this? I don't know if I should go ahead and refinish two wheels or buy two used but undamaged wheels.

It's all in the skill and eye of the repair man, as there is no exact match to the factory paint job, which is a two stage paint I believe. I had my curb rash repaired and you can not tell any difference in color, looks like it did before the accident. Then again, my guy does a lot of hyper silver repairs for most of the dealers in town, and is very good. YMMV, depends on the skill of your guy.
