    Anyone ever done their own wheel rash repair?

    I picked up a set of silver TRD BBS 18" wheels. 2 of the wheels have a few nicks in them and I would rather not pay $200 to get them fixed. Has anyone ever done this to their wheels? I am confident I could do the wheel repair, but I am more worried about the paint matching the BBS wheel. The...
