Refinishing Stock Wheels - Color Matching

So I've had these wheels slightly curbed for a while and am now thinking to get them refinished on my own. I understand that a job like this is often done by professionals who do this kind of thing for a living but I'll be alright with the end product as long as it doesn't come out horrible.

In order for that not to happen I'd like to be able to know that the paint I'm using will match up nicely with the wheels. Anyone have any experience using the products below? Any idea if the color would match up well with the stock black JCW Track Spoke 501's??

Appreciate any help.

I don't have any experience with those products, but you may want to check out this similar thread here:
