Thanks

I'd be interested in the pricing they quote you. I have one on my '12 I bought used that could use some love. I'm just worried the cost to repair might equal or exceed new.

I too am looking for a place that will repair my PVD wheels. You look online and it says everywhere, they are cheap and easy to fix, yet every wheel shop I call says they don't do that? I looked at shipping them to Detroit, and a place on ebay... but for that kind of money I can buy another set of wheels and then most likely sell mine and not come out too far behind... Its just annoying that no one seems to know how to or care to repair these wheels... Has anyone out there been able to find a cheap place to have them repaired? I am in the Atlanta area

Holy Cow - I had not even thought about that! I remember reading about the process and got excited about dipping some interior parts to a old Jeep.... I will have to look into it, just not sure about durability when it comes to wheels, but it should be a way cheaper option, and possibly even cheap enough to re-do if they were to get damaged/scratched

Yeah the durability would be a question... but they hydro grills, grill insert and other external parts so unless youre dipping wheels off your rock crawler I'd think you;d be fine.

Well I found a local guy that does it, and he has actually done wheels, saw some pics and they looked good. However, he charges as much as an after market wheel.
The other thing I am going to look into is getting them wrapped with vinyl... Saw some guys on Youtube doing it, I know it wont last long, but again I am hoping maybe its cheap enough to hold me over

You could always Plasti-Dip them.. its probably just as durable as vinyl.
