Exclamation Curb Rash.

Hello,

I just got a slight curb rash today that I want to get fixed.

Does anybody here know of any reputable shops.

My car feels so dirty now that I have it.

Thanks

IN Brampton or GTA.

Were your OEM wheels chipping or did you have some curb rash? How well did they match the colour?

One of my wheels has a black spot that appears to be from a rock chip or something but it's not curbed.

Two of my OEM wheels were damaged by the tire installers who put on my winter boots.

One had a large chip between the spokes and the other had two gouges on the spokes themselves. Both wheels were completely re-painted with the tires on but bead broken.

I'm impressed with the colour match - looks to be exactly the same. I'll take a picture later if I have the chance.

I emailed the vendor for the Brampton, Milton, Oakville region and for one wheel he charges $150. He requested that you take the wheel off and he will pick it up from home or office in the morning and then drop it off in the afternoon. Price sounds reasonable since it is same day service. I know when I asked Woodchester about this same service they told me about $100 but it would be a few days.

If you do go with these guys please let me know since I have one factory wheel that needs some attention before I buy 18" snows for them.

Here's a shot from today. If there's a colour difference, I can't see it.
