Repaired Free 19' OEMS
I got these for free from a friend because it was taking up sooo much space in his garage and instead he gave it to me. Now its in my garage taking up my space lol, but since I had spare time one day I decided to repair the curb damages. When I first saw them, I seriously though he was driving in Japan and came back and let his girlfriend drive in the U.S. lol it was the BAD!! The repairs took me a whole day just with a dremmel, sand paper and flat black paint. The results came out really nice, looks brand new and looks like it could sell for a reasonable price lol, but tell me what you guys think of my efforts on the rims.

Thanks a lot, I've actually got a lot of pm's about these wheels and yes I have been getting a higher offer than 400 this time lol. It does look a little funny with the center caps, well I have extra time today so back to work on the wheels.

No bondo required, I just used a sandpaper to smooth out the surface. It just take time and patience. I started off with 200 grit after the machine, then i used 800, the used a finer grit 1500.
