I am sure if you get in touch with a reputable body shop or any shop that does professional wheel re-finishing will be able to help you out. Emailing BBS also might be worth it. Good luck

Since you are having to do them all, just bring them one of the wheels and I'm sure they could find a way to color match it.

Isn't DBK a multiple step process like chrome shadow?

E39 M5 and E46 M3 18" wheels were chrome shadow, and when I damaged them once, they perfectly colour matched at the local BMW repair shop. It's the case of taking the wheel and showing them.
