So I fucked up one of my rims on a curb. Anyone know a source for buying a new EB PP rim. So far I've only seen silver and dark stainless rims but not the black ones. Thanks

I have one that is in perfect condition on the outside, and there is not bending or cracks. But the inner rim well, is scratched. That in trying to let go , for somewhat cheap

OEM off EBay will be your best bet without breaking the bank or buying a whole set. Mainly places in my area, near Detroit.

I visited the US Wheel warehouse and the guys were very open and informative about their process.

I bought my winter wheel set up from Detroit Wheel and they gave me an amazing deal for some beautiful wheels.

Feel free to PM me if you want to chat or if you need help.

If the scratch isn't too bad, you can save yourself some cash and just fix it.

The official way is to sand it and paint over it, but I just repainted mine (it was mostly the lip that got scuffed).

The official color for the wheel is M6373-W.

I bought this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SI9K7TY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

Yeah just scratched. A buddy of mine that works at a Mercedes dealership said he has a guy that can fix it. I'm gonna have him look at it first before buying another rim.

Mine was worse than that. IMO that's is not worth replacing. A simple touch up with paint will fix it. You won't notice it once it's fixed unless you specifically look for it up close.

I would see what you can do with what you have first, seek your repair option first!

Try something like this.

Find a local one. Your dealership may offer this service. Mine does, and I had to have my front right repaired for two separate incidents - one alignment rack damage, one drop in a pothole - and I had to hunt with bright lights to find the repairs. Invisible under normal scrutiny.
