It was posted last week regarding a DIY repair on curb rashed rims. I can't seem to find it. Can someone point me in the right direction?........Thanks.

I haven't read the link, but here is what I did to repair a set of BMW OEM M3 rims that had some rash....

I used "liquid steel" which is a two part epoxy type mixture and applied it to the rashed areas. I did this snoothly and just above the level of the wheel. After it dried I sanded the filled area in until it blended with the lip of the wheel and repainted and clearcoated the wheel with Wurth alloy wheel spray paint. Looks perfect. Mounted the tires and balanced like normal.

good luck :wave:

Thats the exact same procedure taht I use, although it is much easier if you dismount the wheel from the car :)
