Styling scuffed alloys

[noymad]

in a moment of tiredness after a rather ****y shift i managed to scuff my left front alloy (dont all gasp at once now) was just wondering if there is any way of making the scuff look...well... less scuffed??

 

[Hellcat]

Which type of alloy? If it's the 17" two tone then it's going to be difficult.

You can get wheels refurbished professionally for about £50 , or you can buy DIY kits that won't do a perfect repair but will look fine from a metre or so away.

For a tenner or so I'd give one of them a try - plenty of Ebay sellers have them and I expect Halfords will do the same.

its now an excuse to upgrade the rims

 

[noymad]

if only my bank balance allowed a we cheeky upgrade lol

yeah its the 2 tone 17"

ill have a look into getting them done proper cause they really do make the car

cheers for your help lads

i have the same wheels and have done the same on mine imo just leave them mate if its not to bad

 

[noymad]

they are the best thing on the car mate and it annoys me that they are damaged but ill let use know how they get on

I say go to your local dealer and see if they will trade it in for a new one? I did that with my car before and i paid half price for the replacement wheel. Just throwing suggestions
