 One of my rims has a LONG THICK line scuffed from unknown?... i dont know how it happend but my rim is f'd up and i dont want to buy an aftermarket rim. Besides i dont like this color, its the silver one that has the Scion logo on it. What color should it be?

 What color is your car? If it's darker i would go for the graphite finish on the RS1.0

I would use a garbage bag and tape around the lip of the wheel with a painters grade masking tape.
