Rim Color Change on Lease Turn-In?

As mentioned on another thread, I have a car with two bent rims on their face.

To repair this, I believe the face of the rims have to be repainted.

If I chose to change the color of my rims, anyone know how same impacts lease turn-in?

Wondering what would happen if I paint them black or silver, or have them machined.

ALSO, any idea if it's more expensive to have a rim repair shop 'machine' them?

Thanks!

on lease turn in you will have to pay to have them refinished OEM color.
you should do this yourself since it will only cost about 400, where the dealer will charge some inflated rate.
to repair a bent rim which would cover repainting the bent area OEM silver, it would be $75 per rim over at Intrack tires in jamaica queens.
i have used them for cracks bends, full color change with powdercoating, as well as PC chargepipes and exhaust tips.
highly recommend them

Thanks.

I visited a number of shops today in Freeport.

Seems I must bring my rims to them and can't leave my car with them.

Did you leave your car at Intrack?

Also, is the $75 for an inner or outer bend?

Thanks again.
