So I Kissed the Curb with my Rim. Any Way to Touch Up?

Sadly I’ve done it twice to the same wheel. Luckily there’s a repair shop about a hour away that does great work. They charge $200 per wheel which includes a complete repainting and color match.

Same. Curbed them on a Sunday drive. Fixed that next week. Forged aluminum.

I managed a few months back to catch the corner of a curb on my passenger side rear rim pulling out of a parking space, so now I have two to fix! It will be a weekend project here soon.

My first happened today. Is it a problem that the first thing I did was think of this thread and take a couple of photos? Other than that had a beautiful day out with Hende Z and got a .7 G pull from a 20mph roll!

Thats not too bad!
I had a much longer scrape after curbing my perf wheels at a drive through. Just decided to sand and use black Nissan touch-up paint that I have on the shelf for my black Frontier myself. I didn't do too bad of a job and after a few months I don't even notice it now that the shine from the clear-coat isn't as fresh.

Thank you I’ll check that out. It’s a small rash but still sucks it’s her first battle scar. I’ve been lucky!

No doubt! I was pretty bummed out when I did it too.
