Wheel Scratch Repair

I am so mad... Just rubbed a wheel against a Belgium block curb. Nasty scratch just cosmetic luckily. Any tips on a place where I can get the scratches reduced/ removed. I am in Northern NJ

Ray Catena in Edison will do it, they charge about 120.00 to refinish the wheel..

Someone like Sameday could do this http://www.sameday-usa.com/ and are good for individual scuffs. You'll have to determine whether it is cheaper than the price quoted above.

I did the same thing a few months ago. Took it to my dealer, Globe Motor Cars in Fairfield, NJ and they took care of it for me. Under $100 if I recall correctly but the rim guy only comes once a week so you need to coordinate with them. Fairfield is around 15-20 minutes away from you. I can't vouch for other services in the area.
