Question Rocker trim paint on '98 E320?

Is it anything special? Mine shows wear from road debris just in front of the real wheel where the rocker panel flares out and I would like to touch it up.

If it is just scruff marks, try Mothers 'Back to Black'. I use it on my car and those panels look almost new.

Richard, it is not scuffs, it is where the paint has been blasted away by road debris, I want to repaint or more precisely touch up that area, and would like to match the paint if possible without having to paint the rockers the whole distance front to back.

If you have an automotive paint company nearby, they can use a scanner to measure the paint color and then mix up some and put in a spray can.
