ok i have a set of 5 FF7s and one has very minor curb rash, we actually my smallest boy tipped the rim over and the rim fell on its face... causing some rash on the lip only...

could it be fixed and what am i looking at to pay??
also does anyone know where to get it fixed in socal???

thanks!!

 

I sent a Boyd Wheel somewhere in the Valley a couple of year's ago for repair. It was bent pretty good and they fixed it. I think it was a flat rate charge at the time. If it is just cosmetic you might get off a lot cheaper. I would do a search for rim repair. Good luck!

 

thanks... at least i know its doable....

 

You can fix it yourself. Start with some wet-or-dry paper, maybe around 240 grit, and gently sand the scuffed area til the scuff is gone. Work your way up to 600 - 1000 grit till the area just looks a little hazy then polish it with a good aluminum polish, something like Simichrome would work. That's all that a shop is going to do...

 

same thing happened with me..i had a little curb check with one of my rims and it was only scratched along the lip..since my wheels are a gunmetal color, i cant just sand it down, and i'd prefer to leave this job to a professional. can anybody give me a quote on how much it would cost?
