Rim touch up paint?

While parking up i didn't notice some **** left 2 pieces of flat rocks on the road which i thought i rolled over instead of curbed just the rim of the rim, thank god i didn't hit the spoke or else i would've been pissed, i remember seeing some sharpie touch up marker or something close to our rim color marker on the forums, can someone link me to it?, plz leave a review if you had or owned one, i cant just dish out 135 bucks to get it cleaned up right now. thanks!!

G37 19 inch rim btw.

no, I dont think it would have worked when my rims were silver. As long as you take a toothbrush and clean the scratch to keep the brake dust out of it then it shouldnt be that noticable. I have black rims now so it wont work.

It's not that noticeable, only up-close but from a distance u can't really notice it, but knowing it's there bothers me. That's why I would like to get it covered up for now.
