Default Cost to fix curb rash

I am thinking about buying a 2005 430 and all 4 wheels have curb rash (example picture attached). Is it easy or hard to get these fixed and what should I expect to pay per wheel? Who does that kind of work?

There are many places that refurbish wheels, just call around. For comparison, I bought 4 refurbished aluminum wheels for my F-150 last fall and the total cost (including shipping) was $560.

In GA (ATL) there are a few indy places that will fix scratched up wheels and repaint them. I have had 2 of mine done and was 75.00 per wheel. I would search on google or yelp for wheel refurbish or something like that i see who is in your area. Some guys have service where they will come to you.

Theres a place local here in Charleston that will refinish wheels for $90/ wheel ( that includes sandblasting and powdercoating in the color of your choice)

My wheels looked worse than yours and I bought this stuff:

and watched a couple of youtube videos on how to fix it. And about an hour of applying this, letting it dry and repainting it, and you cannot tell the difference between my wheels and nearly-new. I would definitely give this a try before I put into buying new wheels.
