I hit a curb!!!

It's not too bad, but the powdercoat on the rim is thick and I don't think the touch-up paint is going to work too well. Any suggestions to touch up the rim?

Unhappy wheel repair

To bad about your wheel, if you want it perfect buy a new wheel. I took a battery powered engraveing tool, used to put your name on your things to identify them, and slowly ground down the effected area. if you get your face right next to the wheel you can tell but any thing else it looks good. Just a thought. Good Luck.

Thumbs up

This is where I got two 1999-00 wheels for $160.00 each.

http://www.buyfordmotorsport.com

They sell the 01-02 wheels also, but I can recall how much they are.......under $200 for sure, compared to OVER 400 at the dealer!

MAKE sure you call them to order, they have them listed for $175.00 each online, but in this month's issue of 5.0 Mustang & Super Ford Magazine they have them for $160.00 each!

Good Luck!

I had them 4 days after I ordered them!!!

It's sad, really, but I just HAD to buy another rim after a curb rubbing incident...couldn't deal with the scratch.
