Anybody know if Volk or anybody sells GT-C lip separately?
As the title states, I am looking to see if i can buy the outer lip of 1 Volk Gt-C.
Hit a curb while driving home in the rain - don't think its bent but at the same time, I dont think it is repairable... One section (about 2 inches) scraped off...
If anybody knows any vendor or person that sells the outer lip, please let me know...
Thanks

Sorry guys you'll have to buy whole new rims or have your existing ones repaired to make them look new again.
You cannot buy just the barrels.
If Rays Engineering sold just the barrels other companies would buy them and bolt their own centers into them.
The other thing about Rays wheels is the clearcoat cannot be matched here in the U.S.
You will have to have all for rims repolished and the rims recleared or left with no clear coat.
The result if the lip is re-clear coated it will not be a shinny as the Rays finish.
The other thing if you just fix and re-polished the rims leaving the clearcoat off you will have to hand poilshed them to make as shinny as before.
Hope this helps guys.

Red 6, who do you recommend for fixing the wheels. I think i would like to get mine refinished anyway. They are gunmetal but i would like to go powder coat or painted black. I know some people are saying wheels america. Just want some other opinions.
