Curb rash on the 2-tone wheels, are they painted or just cleared?

I have a bit of rash that unfortunately goes straight from the black part, across the machined part, and to the other side.
Thing is, if they were just black, I'd have no issues with sanding and touching up the rim. But they're the two-tone, and I can't really tell what the silver part is.. is it just polished aluminum, cleared over? Is the clearcoat tinted or is it just reflecting the dark asphalt? or is it a gray paint? Im worried about matching the silver appearance. Has anyone successfully touched up one of these rims and can share what paints they used?
Thanks in advance

Take look at the March 1, 2023 thread that as I recall was stared by TheCanadian.

Thanks but I'm not able to find the post you're referencing, I found a couple but they were for FL5 matte black wheels

Any curb rash can be fixed, I experienced the same and fixed by the dealer since I have the wheels and tires package.
