long story short...my bf scuffed up one of my rims last night and today found out how much it would cost to replace just that one from the dealership...$419 haven't seen the car yet, but really didn't care for the OEM rims to begin with and will eventually get something nice, so not a big deal, just wanted to share the price with you guys

Can't they just fix it instead of replace it? like sand it down and buff it up? I scuffed up my rims on my old sentra spec-v, it was something like $100 bucks to fix.

oh btw, i never did get them fixed, i just got the price from the stealership.

I can't imagine anyone ever buys OEM wheels from the dealership ... it's almost like they price the wheels so no one will veer buy them?? Maybe it's so when doing an estimate for an insurance claim, the car owner can buy aftermarket wheels for less $$??

There's plenty of Nissan/Infiniti "take-offs" that would be an upgrade and cost less.

I was at the Nissan Service Department once and saw a guy buy a replacement wheel from them and I just shook my head and pitied the fool
