Default Help!!

If I didnt love my brother I would have shot him... I think I have a curse put on my car... first my car gets hit a few months ago.. lastweek my car got keyed from the hood all the way around and back to the hood... AND NOW... my brother takes my car to the mall and brings it back with the rim curbed! the rash is pretty small , he says he gave it to valet and they did it. Well im gonna go nuts with all this stuff happening to me.

Does anyone know a company that takes care of curb rash or am I just stuck with it? BTW its not real bad, pretty thin but about 5 inches long

I'll post pics tomorrow or something.

If anyone knows a company please let me know,

Thanks

Lots of places deal with curb rash. My local dealer has a guy that comes in once per week to do any cars they have onsite that may need it.

are the lips polished, if they are polished its a little easier but if they are chrome than its a little more work and money.

i'm afraid you're out of luck with chrome. the only way to fix this is to fix the scratch and rechome. i don't think there is anyone who can fix a curbed wheel w/o having to rechrome the whole wheel.

with a polished wheel, it's easy to fix.
