Curb Rash on Black Wheels
 
So my afternoon craving for crisscut fries cost me more than $2.50 today after I was apparently too close to the drive-through window and now both left side, BLACK Enkei NT03s are victims of curb rash. Since it's a black wheel, it's totally noticeable. (Almost all around the front and half the rear...I know. FML.)

Have any of you been able to fix this and get it to look like-new? I'm going to the wheel guy that fixed my Volks a few years back and get an estimate on repair.

I guess if the repair costs more than buying two new wheels, I'd just buy the wheels but I'm hoping it doesn't get to that.

I feel like an idiot today as this was just so preventable. In any case, no more drive-through windows for me.

I had black Enkei wheels with some curb rash. A few sprays with Plasti-Dip and you couldn't notice the curb rash from a few feet away. Super cheap and quick way to cover up the damage.

I use an all weather black paint pen. From a meter a way (that's 3.28 feet) it is invisible.
