Today I curbed one of my 18" 04 A8L 5 star factory wheels. I don't want to go to the dealership to get a new one, I would end up paying an arm and a leg, and I looked on ebay and couldn't find one. Anyone know where else I can look for one. It's pretty bad. I was trying to parallel park and I have curb rash all around the wheel. It looks so bad, I can't believe I did that.

I did something similar a few months back. I went to the dealer and they were able to repair the wheel. It cost something like 80 bucks - and you can not tell the difference.

My dealer also has a ding/dent guy that comes around - they were able to remove a ding out of my Q7 - you can't even tell...

Try the dealer and ask for wheel repair - it is cosmetic so they should be able to fix it.

There's a company in Huntington, Indiana called TransWheel. They do a great job of reconditioning aluminum wheels. Their website is below<ul><li><a href="http://www.transwheel.com">Transwheel website</a></li></ul>

They have done 4 wheels for me over the years incuding a refinish job on a 20 inch Quattro GmbH 9 spoke wheel with a polished front face, painted inner spokes and clear coat.
The job they do is excellent.
If the wheel is not damaged they can fix it - they can also fix damaged wheels but I would not give that a go on an $80k car and my like is riding on it!<ul><li><a href="http://www.fixrim.com/">Wheels America</a></li></ul>
