Yeah, I think if you pay more. If not a body shop will.

yup but for a good amount of money. basically they have to strip the clear on there, repair rim, then reclear. make suer you get the clear because either way, it will shine but with clear, less maintenance to clean.

Last time I had two small curbrashes on the same wheel, but had it fixed like new for $45.
I wasn't too sure about this one cuz it's like 10 times the size of previous damage lol sigh..
yeah, i mounted the same set on my car but didn't look right. they have hyper black, silver and the new 07 BLACK as well.

Find a good shop. Wheels America did mine for under 200. Full curb rash and a chunk missing like yours. They look new minus clearcoat.

the rear is 400 a piece for a 19x10 and the front comes in eitehr 19x8.5 or 19x9 and is 390 a piece. so a total of 1580 for the whole set. The rare 2007 Black rims with chrome lip cost about 50 bucks more each wheel.

Dropped off the wheel at a wheel repair shop(the one I went to before), picked it up on the same day.
Paid $35 to fix it and it came out great. Just gotta go buy and apply metal polish to finish it up perfect.
I was gonna take it to Tru Wheels first, but they quoted me $200
