Sport wheels scratched. Repairable?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Noticed a minor scuff on my front wheel yesterday. Have no idea how it got there as I have not curbed my wheels.

Is this repairable? If it is, does it mean the entire wheel will have to be repainted? My concern about that is if the paint application will match the other wheels.

I am also considering painting the wheels a hyper gun metallic if it can't be repaired.

it can be fixed, yes entire wheel will probably need to be repainted. yes they can match it about perfectly and if its not they will do it again until it does. and might be a good time to change colors anyway if you gotta do that.

Yep - had a similar repair done on my wheel. They repainted the whole wheel matched perfectly to the others. I believe I paid $125 or so for the repair.

Okay, good to hear. Was worried about them not matching that slightly "rippled" look on the original finish.

JGreenwood07 06-20-2011 04:28 PM

Maybe nobody, but I will.
