hi fellas, i have a lovely set of 18" bbs chs on my golf gti but one two of the wheels there are small scuff marks around the rim where they have rubbed against kerbs,

they are only 2-3" but they are driving me mad, anyone here touched up marks like this and how did they do it?

on cheap wheels I would have a go, but for £30 a corner or so I would take them to a bodyshop and get them done properly!

yes definately for 18" BBS rims i would go to the effort of taking them to a body shop, plus they will most likely look mint when done, well like brand new

to be honest its prob not worth my while u can see if u look but its not immediately apparent plus its bound to happen again

Where can you get them done for £30? Most places I've tried before want double that for 18" alloys.

You could try it yourself and if it goes wrong then get them professionally done.
