the way i fixed my HUGE *** curb mark(it was like on half of the wheel) i got some hard grit emry cloth paper(its like sandpaper that the welders use, its more durable and doesnt rip too easily like sandpaper does when sanding down metal) and snd it so that its smooth...then powdercoat your wheel to stock color or chrome it, etc. to same color and WALA! your wheel is new.
i did this to my rota slips that were bronze, but i havent powdercoated it back to its original bronze color(sold these wheels awhile back with the fixed curb) but it was smooth like the rest of the wheel.
