I’ve scuffed one of my gloss black wheels and need to get it repaired. Is it worth getting a mobile firm out or are they just going to blob some black paint on? There’s a good firm near me but I suspect I’d need to leave the car or wheel. I also suspect a full refurb will be more pricey. Pic of the damage.

Some are good and will paint the whole wheel but it’s finding a good one is the problem.

Think you might be as well as getting a new/secondhand JCW wheel and mint the old one up at your leisure.

I’m no pro, but I’ve always thought anything to do with paint should be done in a clean indoor environment rather than outside open to wind, moisture and dust..
I had one wheel paint matched and refurbed/resprayed for £80 at a bodyshop.. I took it off myself and just gave them the wheel
