Worn rims??

I just bought a set of montegi mr7 18" rims off of a body of mine and they are a little worn. They are white and there are places where the color has rubbed off and it looks silver. Would regular car touch up paint fix that or is there a way to paint the whole rim. How should i fix this? Also on one rim there is a very small dent along the lip of the rim is there anyway to pop it out?

Re: Worn rims??

best way to fix it is to get them all re powder coated. That nick is not worth the amount it would cost to fix it. A new rim runs like 150 each.

Re: Worn rims??

Depends on the person doing it. I was quoted 300 for 4 of them. Not worth it to me since i only paid 400 for mine.

touch up paint will work, kinda. if the spot stands out, use touch up paint, it will atleast cover up the spot, and it's a helluva lot less expensive than powder coating
