Curbed Rim :-(
Was teaching my daughter to drive a manual.. She got a little too close to the curb..:banghead:
Its not terrible, just kinda roughed up... stock Shinka wheels... Anything I can do to smooth them out? I thought about trying to work on it with a dremel tool, but i didnt want to make it worse. Anyone have a suggestion... besides not letting my daughter drive it again. :icon_no2: |
I have a few scuffs on my stock rims from the previous owner, I too would like to see some suggestions...
|
IMO - take it to get pro wheel restored (like 100 a wheel to grind out the damage) and then powdercoat them.
But you can always try to grind and sand it yourself. |
**it happens, deal, move on. lol
But if it bothers you that much...http://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext43.shtml |
none of that stuff works, you have to get the rims and paint the hole thing, i think everyone had scuff on the rims and body, if the car lives outside
|
Until I get around to full sanding and refinishing my own curbed rim (similar story btw!), I just used a bit of the silver touchup paint that came with my daughter's Mazda6. It's pretty good camouflage, and protectant.
btw: I used a Mothers mini- [drill] ball and their aluminum wheel polish on my rims this weekend and they came out really nice. I thought they were already in pretty good shape and yet it was still dramatic. |
