It was just a matter of time before the wife curbed it. LOL
Anyways, thought I'd try and fix it. Not perfect, but better than a silver scratch. If I spend more time on it, I could have gotten it a little bit better. But because these will eventually be the winter wheels, I didn't care as much. I think 22s are in the works! Edit: paint I used was from TouchUpDirect Yamaha Matte Black. (Yam008) About a foot long curb rash. [img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4856/...51b103a9_b.jpg[/img] Used the sanding drum to smooth out the scratch. [img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4834/...0523e831_b.jpg[/img] Smoothed out as much as possible without taking too much material out. [img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4837/...047e3908_b.jpg[/img] [img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4869/...ff7a0ab5_b.jpg[/img] Mixed up some body filler for the deep scratches.

[img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4891/...91bb73f5_b.jpg[/img] First coat laid down. [img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4912/...c813fa37_b.jpg[/img] After several coats. [img]https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1922/...8c983b3f_b.jpg[/img] Finished product.
