Hi Guys,

I just purchased a 2008 Mercedes c350 and the car is in great condition except the passenger side rim is scuffed up from what looks like a curb.

Is there anyway to get that buffed out and refinished? or would it be best to get a replacement rim? If so how much would both options cost?

Appreciate any comments.

thanks,
Dave

It depends of course on the severity of the damage. But from what you describe it sounds like it should be no problem to repair. Most dealers have a subcontracted wheel repair guy that shows up on a regular basis to perform this service. For example, my local dealer has a guy that comes in every Monday to take care of all the wheel repairs. Not seeing the damage its hard to say but it should fall in the $50-150 range.

Hey guys,

i found a local Rim Repair guy who works out of his truck so basically mobile repair and wow what a great job he did.

He fixed all the little scuffs and knicks my rims had and he charged me only $160 bucks. The rims look like new now and he did it within an hour. I was shocked at how good they came and how cheap it was.

If any of you are in the Toronto area and need some rim refinishing i would HIGHLY recommend this guy. Let me know if your interested and ill give you his details.
