Wow, that is ridiculous...

To the OP, it is probably worth repairing the stock BBS'. They still sale for decent money when used and in good condition here and on other car forums.

A few months ago I curbed one of my Gram Lights about 1/4 of the way around. Yeah I was pretty sick about it. I called the local wheel repair shop. They sent a guy out in what looked like a UPS truck. The truck had a mini shop set up in the back. The wheel is matte black. Once he was done the wheel looked brand new. I couldn't tell where the damage was done. Really impressive. I only cost $150.

The cost is probably going to be around $80-$150 to repair. However, the BBS finish is one of the hardest to replicate I've heard
