Noob question, and yeah, i did a search...

Wondering what my options are after I had one of my rims fuked up against a curb. (don't ask how... ugh).

Do i need to totally repowder coat them or are there other ways of making them look nice? (will touch up paint -- as a low end crappy option -- stay on the rims as well as they stay on the car body?)

Also, one of the other ones were bent, how much would it cost to get something like that fixed typically?

Thanks!

Carcone Auto Wreckers Re-Finishes Rims.

 

Depending on how scratched/curbed the rim is - touch up paint should do the trick - otherwise you'll need to re-paint the rim. Powdercoating is another option - but you'll have to get a sign shop to make new decals for you.

The bent rim will have to be heated to be repaired - which will necessitate refinishing.

They might know someone in the T.O. area that does the same thing.

 

Thanks all.

Another noob question .. what does "refinishing" a entail? Does that mean spot powder coating?
