Major Curb Rash :(
So I got cut off the other day so badly that I had to brake hard and swerve all the way to the curb.
Heard a really loud grind.
I already had a little curb rash but this just made it a hella lot worse.
The result :
Any options on what I can do and what the price may be like?

Well I can't speak for FL, but over here shops do roughly $80-150 a wheel

Can't speak for FL either, but prices a little further up the Atlantic coast are pretty similar to what Hoovey said.
Sorry that you had that happen to you.

In Denver they are roughly $60-80/per wheel to repair and re-do. Surprisingly very cheap.

Damn that sucks
! But definitely repairable. Send that picture to some local wheel repair shops for some quotes!

Check this out.
It might look a bit amateur, but I think it would be a great cost efficient way to repair it. I also have rashes similar to yours on one of my wheels and I'm planning on filling and painting my F Sport wheels black.

Sorry to hear about the curb rash. Looks bad. I'm sure you can get it fixed for around $100 or so per wheel. Good luck.
