Default Hello

What the title said. "Hello" I'm new here. I own a Volvo S60 d3 R-design. And i recently scratched a curb (Or is it pavement?) And now my life is over. So i'm here mainly looking for some tips on how to fix, or make my alloy look better. Cheers.

depends on the injury from curbing the rims :-) and somewhat on the kind of wheel.

Most wheels are painted the same way the body is painted - ie base+clear coat - but if you have brushed or polished wheels you may need a professional shop. For painted wheels you'd need to match the color code - a full service auto paint dealer or body shop would probably be able to help.

For outsourcing the job or finding refurbished wheels you can try a shop like
Wheel Collision Center Bath PA
