How can I match the hyperblack paint on my Rota Fuchs?

I bought some used Rota Fuchs in hyperblack but don't want to pay $180 for new center caps that match--what are my options?

Rattle cans...they are cheap. Or paint them in contrast....

Thanks Mike--I was going to take the wheels down to a local paint shop and see if they could whip up a match in a can. I was hoping someone has already done the legwork with the paint code for this color.

Try stripping them raw with paint remover. They look cool raw, and might look similar to the hyperblack. Where can I find a used set of rotas?
