Hey guys, I scratched the edge of one of my rims (BLAH) , and it bothers me needless to say.
I have the 17' aluminum bullitts that came with the pony package

In any case, what are my options:
1) Is there any product out there that would lessen the damage?

or 2) Buying a new rim altogether - anyone have any links, and how much would just the rim run me? Thanks a lot

There was one site where a guy repaire dhis bmw rim almost perfect. With that said hopefully someone has the link for you

 

There are probably several places in your local phone book which will be able to repair your rim, but when I scraped one of mine, I called around and they were all charging at least $100-$150 for a repair. At that price, you're better off to just get a take-off rim from the internet and then you won't need to worry about a bad quality repair.

In my case, I decided to go with a new rim, but unfortunately didn't know about internet take-off parts at the time, so that $89 rim on the internet cost me $400 from my Ford dealer. Yikes.

If it's just a little surface scratch you might be able to polish it out (aluminum polish, I guess...) and have it look okay, but if you ground it down at all and are picky about those things (which I'm guessing you are) you'll probably be happier going with a "new" take-off rim from eBay or whatever.

 

yeah my dad bought a truck rim from the dealer before and it was 300..but i think insurance paid for it...

 

Hmmm those rims are great, but the center cap is different (I have the horse with the white/blue/red stripes behind it). Does the cap come out?


And thanks big time for all your help guys

 

yeh, you can buy the ones you have, you just pop and switch them.
