curb rash help?
the previous owner of the car put on a set of konigs and ruined all 4 of them with curb rash! i want to sell the rims now for new ones, but probably wont get anything b.c of the curb rash. i was wondering if its a fairly easy DIY or if im better off getting it professionally done, and on average how much per rim it would cost to fix?

No problem. It was easy, just time consuming

repairing them on your own is pretty difficult and time consuming

I think a few shops will charge about 150-200 to refinish the set
