Scratches in my rims

[bmw5541]

Unfortunately I think those have to be reconditioned by a pro that can resurface it or whatever they do. If you find the right guy it doesnt cost very much and can look great.

I couldn`t have said it any better myself.

I saw the title and was expecting something different. Those ARE some serious scratches. Looks like good advice above.

The bad thing is that all four rims have this. :doh:


So the next question is, how do you find someone locally that can help with these?

curb rash is the worst

Where did my reply go

[CEE DOG]

Or just google "wheel repair" and whatever city

I wouldn`t expect it to be a very cheap fix so if you`re the one that caused the rash then you may want to consider leaving them alone. Or get some curb scrapers so you stop hitting the curb

We did not do the damage. The previous owner did.

Google wheels repair in your area. Someone is doing it I bet. I had my Mercedes done and I truly couldn`t tell where they were refinished when i got them back. I think cost was only $70.00 a wheel?

You don`t list your geographic location, so it is impossible for any of the members to direct you. I would google "wheel repair" or "rim repair" in tyour local area. You could always all the local BMW dealer and ask who they use for the used cars to fix the rims. This was you get a reccommendation. If they are straight up, no reason they should not tell you.

If you are on LI, in NY PM me and I can give you a good company.

Now, my intention is not to be a jerk but it might come off that way so I`ll ask a few questions....

• Is this your car?
• Did you buy the car with the wheels in this condition?
• If yes to the above then why waste good money fixing them if it`ll happen again?

No, not a jerk, but someone who had not read the thread. He already stated he bought the vehicle in that condition.

[uniquedetailing]

was the wheels already like that before you bought the car.......my gf has the same thing, i refuse to fix them, learn how to park then we`ll talk about fixing them
