Hey guys
Recently i grazed one of my rims on a gutter and just seeing if theres something you can buy or somewhere you can go to fix them up. They are a matt silver 19inch 5 spoke AMG.
Thanks

As CHANDLC says, best to go to a tyre shop. I enquired once. They said they send my wheel away to Surfers (i live in bris) because there is a guy there that does it. I was asking about a slight scratch on my rims, they said it was like $100 standard, but said mags come back looking brand new. He reakons some mags come in with chunks missing - get them back and you would never know.

All they do is weld it back up and re machine it..Mine cost me round $50 to fix.
Just be careful, some tyre shops say they can fix it but what they actually do is send it to another shop and let them fix it, but they charge you double the price..
