I curbed my x-package rim too, both front and rear. Hardly noticeable though.

I was utilizing my bluetooth so I wasn't violating the law!

I'll try and snap some pictures so you guys can let me know if you think it is fixable.

I was maybe thinking of powdercoating/painting the lips black and leaving the spokes chrome... what do you guys think?

just got my wheel back. They were able to remove the curb rash and painted only that area that received the damage. Looks pretty good.

Curbing your wheels sucks. But you can definitely get them fixed.
