Yes, depending on the amount of damage, you can just repaint them. The midnight silver paint is now available.

Where is it available at? The dealership or? Always nice to have some of that around, you just never know when you might need it. Can you post a part number?

IF by chance you mess a wheel up real bad.......at the dealers, they are $750 each. I found a wheel business in Michigan which has a ebay store that has them for $250 each, and they are NEW wheels, not used or takeoffs. Just do a search, his user name is ezbuy247, here is his ebay store address......http://stores.ebay.com/EZ-Buy-Wholesale.

I know there was someone else that had posted a similar experience on the boards here somewhere.

wonder if the match would be better if you professionally sprayed the whole rim?
