How much do you think this will cost?

So last night i spent the night at my friends house, left my G parked in his driveway. not a bad neighborhood at all. Anyways this morning, my front right rim was messed around with as if they attempted to steal my rims. They scratched up the whole lug nut corners and holes and stripped 3/5 wheel studs along with stripping out 3/5 lug nuts. i had to SLOWLY drive it to Nissan since theres no Infiniti dealer local here and they said theyll either rethread the wheel studs or replace them, something like that. I was wondering if anyone knew how much it might come out to? they didnt give me an estimate and my car wont be ready till tomorrow noon and i cant stop thinking about it.

ALSO now that my front rim is scratched up, im going to powder coat my rims gunmetal. how much do you think itll cost to get done at a paint shop? If anyone has done it before.

Thanks

I dont know where you live, but I have powder coated rims for $80.00 Each.
Secondly, on my previous car, I broke 2 studs. I took it apart and I noticed that the lugs were pressed in so I bought the studs which were like 11 bucks then took them to my machine shop and had them presses in. I think the grand total was aboud 30 bucks

You will need to have the rim repaired before you can powder coat them... call your Infiniti dealer and ask if they have a specialist that can repair the rim... should be about $100..

As for the powder coating.. The price just depends on where you go

i think u might come out cheaper like dude said.. go buy some studs.. and a hammer and knock them out and have the new ones pressed in.... or u can take a open end nut and put it on the studs and keep tightening it until it is seated in the correct fit....

umm PS your friend is a girl and u were over there getting a lil trim huh... her EX prolly tried to steal ya rims.. just messing with ya bro
