Fixable Curb Rash?
Hey guys, I curbed my stock wheel pretty bad, could this be fixed easily? Any ideas how much it would run me?

Yes it's fixable. Your best bet is to take it to a wheel repair shop for an estimate.

Expect to spend ~$150 per wheel to refinish. I have the same stock 18's and was shopping prices recently to have similar damage repaired.

OP, you could probably buy one used here cheaper than you could have them all done for. Might take a while for someone to sell one wheel though, lol....

^How would they resurface the finish? Are those painted or raw with a clear?

They use a black base coat followed by a coat of silver (and most likely a clear as well) to get the "hyper" look.

You can probably find a stock 06-08 wheel for $100-150, I would rather do that so you can have a spare laying around just in case.
