surface scratch on original 2011 e63 amg mags

hey guys
i recently scratched my amg wheel yesterday and was wondering if theres some kind of touch up paint or kit that i can buy to reduce its appearance?
i asked MB and they said that they have nothing for it and only gave me a number to a guy who fixes wheels and i dont want to spend 190$ to fix a wheel when the scratch is a half an inch...and i rather not wait til it gets worst because i just got the car!
any help would be appreciated!
thanks!

thx Vic lol
If what you sent me was a link to google "aluminum wheel touch up paint"...thats just plain mean...lol
truuust me i wasn't being lazy and i've googled it before even posting this thread...
i was just plainly wondering if somebody had already done it for an AMG mag and if they know of something that will look as close as the amg finish as possible...
if i buy something like chrome or silver paint or spray,i can almost guarantee it won't blend in... i dont want to start screwing around with the mags....

LOL it was exactly that--- you can always get mag wheel touch up and if it doesnt look great you remove it. Sort of like touching up nicks from rocks on your paint- the touch up paint slowly wears off or you can buff it out real quick too. A half inch mark is not gonna show- Id get some mag wheel touch up and do some test applications on a spare wheel or something silver to see what it looks like.
