steviej Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Just wanted to know if it's possible to repair light curb rash??? I am thinking about buying a set of OEM lexus wheels that have road rash on two of the rims.... Are they chrome, alloy or painted rims. If metal is missing, then a complete repair is probably out of the question. However, I have had to do the following to one of my chrome rims and one of my alloys: The rough edges can be lightly sanded and hopefully made to blend in a little, then a layer of clear coat can be put on to prevent further rusting or discoloration. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisher972002 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I know it is possible with some dealerships.. For example my brother has a 1998 porsche 911 Carrera C2S the only flaw on the car was some curb rash on the rear pass wheel..He sent it to a local dealership Ramsey pontiac/porsche, and they sent the rim into a repair shop.. They alum welded and sanded down, and repainted the rim.. For $200.00... Not too bad, it looks absolutely perfect.. You woudln't even know it.. but again, this car has painted rims from the factory that match the color of the car, so I don't know for aluminum non painted.... Check w/dealer/ or a local wheel repair place if you can find.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
