Argghh! Curb Rash

[Billybong]

I tagged the curb leaving work today and got some curb rash on my right rear wheel. Damn, that sucks. Is there any way to get it fixed at a wheel place? :cryying:

not really, kinda depends on the damage then they have to be repainted. Get you a used one on ebay. Feel lucky my friend ran over a lane seperator with his 19" HRE's on his Z06 and smashed the crap out of them. Luckily they are 3 piece.

Yeah, the HRE's are 3 piece, but it's $330 to replace either the front or rear hoops on them. I don't even want to know how much it costs to replace the centers. :cryying: I guess it would be better to fix the HRE's than buy a new one. In your case, I would buy a replacement wheel. It will be easier, cheaper, and match better than fixing it anyway.
