Does anyone know if GM makes silver colored touch up paint for the Vibes alloy wheels (17") - I presume the same paint is used for the 16" alloys as well - If you can give me the part number for the touch up paint. Second, could someone please post a picture of the OEM lugnuts used for the 16 or 17" alloy wheels - I want to make sure I get the correct type (the acorn end or a flat end). Also, are the OEM lugnut ends painted the same silver color as the wheel or are theysomething different.thanksEd

Thanks for the info Nova. I went to the site and to get wheel touch uppaint - I need the base and clear it will be $22 bucks for 1 oz. To me that is extremely expensive. I will see how much the dealership will charge -- maybe I will be floored even more.thanksEd

You're right, those prices do seem high. I paid $5 for a 1/2 oz bottle but that was just the color, not the clear. Are you sure you need the clear coat? Check the dealer, it may be cheaper.
