Curb rash

seattle · 10-12-2009, 06:00 PM

I was washing the Z06 yesterday and I noticed that the RF wheel has about an 8" section of the outside lip with curb rash. My wife used the car but doesn't remember hitting any curbs. I know I didn't do it so I guess it will JUST BE A MYSTERY

and keep peace in the family.

Is there a local place that can fix this? Anybody have any recommendations?

Thanks for bringing that thread up. I'd forgotten about it.

Bruno they did good work and were very fast. Turn around was next day and if I recall I could have picked it up the same day.

I save helpful tidbits like that. Never know when I might need it.

Thanks. I'll be giving Steve's a call. I better get it fixed sooner than later so I too can forget about it like Joe did.

Steve did a great job on my CCW wheel as well. He can be a bit hard to get on the phone, so I just stopped by for an estimate.

I got my wheel back today from Steve's Custom Cars. It looks brand new. He did a great job. Now we have to stay away from those spring loaded curbs

Please be advised that curbs in the Everett Lynnwood area have the proven ability to snap out almost 3' to snatch at the unsuspecting
