Need help ... Scratched Rim
 
:mad: Got pulled into a curb by a pothole yesterday and scratched the edge of my right front rim... :mad: Anyone have any quick fixes for hiding the damage? It's not extensive, but the damn car was PRISTINE before this. Any thoughts welcome.

Do a search but I think sunlight silver is a close match maybe you can buy some touch up paint and touch it up.

I did the same thing... sucks, doesn't it?

However, after some a**hole backed into me while parked the other day, the rim isn't such a big deal anymore. Now it's the $500 repair to the scratch in the front bumper!!

(I'm going to just leave it... I figure nobody will bother to mess with my dinged-up RX8 now!) :)

So, in short - just leave the rim until something more major happens... then, it won't seem so bad at all. ;)

Sunlight silver should match our wheel color too.

I'd try to find 1 new OEM wheel. Either on this site or www.ebay.com

I've seen just one wheel being sold a few times.
Good luck
