I went to the Mercedez dealership this morning and had it fixed for $70. The guy said that since the paint gets darker as it goes towards the outside edge that I'd never find a paint code for it. He sanded it down and painted it. It looks great.

I would like to know the paint code color for the standard FX4 rims. Looks like a smoked chrome color and a local tire company scratched mine and tried to do a repair that turned out worse than they were.
Unfortunately, Ford has never released a color code for our grey FX4 wheels. They are a flavor of hyper silver, and were factory painted using a multi-stage paint (translucent metallic outer paint laid over a colored undercoat laid over black, I think).
I have a small rash on one wheel, and as I thought my wheels looked really close to the Sterling Grey color of my truck, I tried touch-up paint in the same, "UJ" (just like the OP). It's close enough to look much, much better, but isn't ideal. A local rim fix shop had phone quoted me $200 initially to fix the little scuff -- I'll live with it for now I guess.

Would like to know this paint color as well. I have a paint code(UX) Ignot Siver Metallic for the main body, wheels are probably 1/4 shade darker than the UX and probably 1/4 lighter than the UJ of the Sterling Grey. Knock on wood no artifacts or scratches on these pretty wheels yet, but over time i'm sure something might happen, hopefully not though.
