How much did it cost you? Also, will those spots hold up as well as a original production wheel?

At first I thought you took a picture of the other non curbed wheels lol. Then I realized it was the same one. That looks really good.

$300 to fix the two wheels and repaint all 4 wheels. Not sure whats you mean by spots but the the wheels will hold up perfect no problem.

Moved from the US a couple of months ago, they were done at a local body shop in my home town.

The spots/areas that were fixed. Will they hold up to abuse as well as a factory wheel.
