kerbed a wheel

I have a 2013 dynamic with the dark green pained alloys

managed to kerb one today in the worlds smallest shopping center car park

damage isnt too bad and if they werent painted i wouldnt worry but as there is still loads of salt about and cosmetically it doesnt look great - what are my options ?

i presume there is a place that will repaint it ? what am i looking at cost wise ?

2014 Freelander 2 TD4_e Dynamic Manual Fuji White

Dark green alloys to get a wheel refurbed your looking at £60. They will need the paint code so that it matches the remaining 3 wheels on the car. Some places can even do a smart repair depending on how bad the damage is. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

A normal wheel refurb will usually cost between £50 & £60. Yours might cost slightly more given the colour scheme is unusual. Might need all 4 done if they can't match the paint

its the color that comes as standard on the dynamics with the 19 inch wheels it should be dark grey ?

Yes it should be dark grey BUT you have stated dark green There are many wheel specialist out there. I would bin the yellow pages and jump onto Google. Once you found a few companies that look reputable Google their company name as see what kind of reviews they have etc and take it from there.
