HELP! Valet rashed my matte black rims!

AKbmw · 06-23-2009, 07:46 PM

so i just saw today that last nights valet curb rashed my newly powdercoated vmr v710 wheels. they are powdercoated matte black. is there any way to fix this without having the tire removed or would i have to repowdercoat it?

anybody know any shops that can fix this for me?

here is a picture

sucks to see!
and theres no way to pin it on them cause its the next day.
you can definatly spray bomb that, or grab some touchup paint, it wont look perfect, but it may look passable

I've seen him work magic but no promises. . .
He'll tell you whether he can match it or not.

yup, nothing got done. and i just didnt want to make it a big deal since i can get it fixed for under 100$ my powdercoating shop charges me 55 per wheel including fixing the rash.

i just want someone that can do it without taking the tire off maybe? or having to go to my friends body shop and then taking the wheel to the powdercoating place, waiting a day or two then blah blah... i want to just go, pay, then leave. lol

Damn! That might be the way to go. . .
$55 for rash rix and repowder coating is a great deal.

yeah but id pay more to just have them do it on the spot and i can just be done with it. if they can repair it for like 100 bucks then ill do it, if not then ill go the repowdercoating way..

and they dont charge for fixing the rash, the just do it anyways while prepping to powdercoat them..

Have him finish it off and do the other three!!! It'll look more like the new BBS style that just came out

Craig@SupremePower · 06-23-2009, 10:38 PM

DAMN i wouldda gotten locked up.... make sure they can match it up to the other 3 wheels! Powders vary..

200Duece · 06-24-2009, 11:55 AM

It's the new CH that is painted black and the rim edge is polished. Kinda looks like the damaged wheel in OP.

I dig it. looks like a crazy knife blade edge. Rambo style

freshwhite335 · 06-24-2009, 01:53 PM

im pretty sure you can repair any rim?

correct me if im wrong?

BMW335machine · 06-24-2009, 02:33 PM

yes you can repair pretty much any wheel. $55 is too cheap for powder coating and i would question quality.

Proper Motion LLC · 06-24-2009, 03:25 PM

The powder coater you'd get them fixed by is the same powder coater you got them originally coated by?

nano10 · 06-24-2009, 11:47 PM

actually i have a similar rash on my matte black VMR VB3s (my own fault) and i was thinking about getting them repaired too but considering time attack instead
