Hi guys,

A person with the upgraded rims wants to trade me the original bullit ones for the upgraded wheels. One of the wheels has damage to the wheels. I was wondering if people on this board know if this can be fixed. If it can be buffed out, or whatever.

Technically yes.
If you know a welder, aluminum can be welded very eaily and a good machinist will make it look like new.
The other option is to just clean it up your self with a real fine disc and then buff it.

I did that to my upgrade rims. Take a dremel or similar and grind it smooth/polish it. The chip will still be there but you can't see it unless your 1' away

Boy was I upset though when it happened.
