All,

What are the options to repair these rims?

Thanks.

I know there are companies out there, I used one when living in Pittsburgh, that can repair the wheel.

Here is a link to a similar company

www.awrswheelrepair.com

Yea, I got ahold of them, they got a guy that can do it for around 95$+. My concern is if it would look new, matching the colors etc. Has anyone had these specific rims repaired b4?

Upon delivery I noticed a "ding" in one of my Rado wheels. The dealer had it repaired at local wheel repair company, and now I can't even tell which one had the repair. It was a perfect match for paint color

A decent wheel guy will make it 98% of brand new.

I was tired last night and hit a curb because I wasn't paying attention. Like an 1/8th of my front driver side wheel is nice and scraped up good. It was dark and I got out and saw it immediately. Hopefully, I can get it fixed fairly cheaply.

I did the same yesterday... Planning to purchase Sparcos in the future so I will be painting the stock wheels black because #donotcare

Paint or Plasti-dip? Been thinking of doing mine as well.

Rattle can paint... You can find mint OEM wheels for a few hundred, so if I go to sell I can always buy a replacement set.

There is a guy up in Topeka from awrswheelrepair.com that is going to "fix" it on Thursday for 95$. I will let you all know how well he does and hopefully have a before and after picture I can provide. I know the gray rado wheels on fords official website are like 500$ minimum. So, guess i'm paying 95$ for a lesson learned.

He says he will match the OEM paint and gloss it over and blend it in so it looks new... *fingers-crossed*

Damn I got one on my left back rim 2 weeks after I got my car.. Would be great if can be repaired

 

[Nendez420]

That's exactly what I did luv, but it was only a week. I hope after I drop 95$ I don't do it again.

This, along with the PA potholes is exactly why I opted for rim/hazard protection

I scratched up my front and rear passenger side wheels from a hitting the same curb on my way to work! I swear this curb sticks out extra far or something. I didn't really care at first because I was planning on getting new wheels (to swap out every spring/summer) eventually. But now every time I look at them, it makes me kind of sad lol. Anyone know of any good/cheap repair places in Northeast Ohio?

Famous Michigan potholes was the same reason I went for it too.

Here's my damage (both on passenger side)

 

[quiznos]

Talked to my guys here at work. We used to have shops do repair on our fleet. Looking at the pics it's actually done pretty well. Very hard to tell

I found a kit on amazon I am going to try, if it doesn't work, than rattle can it is...

 

[moff3tt]

After seeing some of your pictures mine doesn't look that bad... haha. Man I would have (actually) cried if I messed up my wheel like you guys.

 

[Nendez420]

Well here it is the before and after pictures.
