Can someone help me fix the curb rash on my Turbo twist??

Hey guys. I am new to this forum so If this is in the wrong spot please let me know or you can move it
I just bought some turbo twist wheels that have a curb rash for a good deal and I was wondering if anyone has seen or know about someone posting a DIY for fixing up these wheels with curb rash??
I was searching but couldnt find any so all the help will be appreciated

Here are the pictures of the wheels that has the curb and I also posted a thread I found for VW oweners on how to fix Longbeach wheels. (http://www.passatworld.com/forums/sh....php?p=2183943)
Does anyone know the name of the color of these wheels or a place I can find the stuff to fix these. Thanks alot.

Wet sanding and repainting. Wurth brand Silver is darn close to the factory color, IIRC.

Read these threads, friend. it is not above the realm of the hardcore DIY'er.

There is actually an article in the April 2009 issue of Execellence Magazine (p. 135) that details the repair of a porsche wheel. I think it's called the $23 wheel deal, it was either a twist or cup wheel.
