I have just scuffed my spotless alloys thanks to some women driver with a friggin horsebox comin onto my side of the road!!! I had to swerve to miss her and in doing so hit the feckin kerb. im not impressed.    
 
Does anyone have any tips on how to make it look a bit better? Maybe to smarten it up and hide the scuff?  
 
Any ideas would be fantastic

Is that all it costs? 
 
There is one problem I live right in the North of Scotland and it takes 5 hours to get to Glasgow which as far as i'm aware would be the nearest place to get them done.

price depends on what size the wheel is in most cases cos they have to repaint the whole wheel after fixin!!! bigger wheel, more paint!!!

We seem to be diverting from the problem. Has anyone got any tips on how to go about tidying it up a little? Or where in Scotland you can get alloys reconditioned?
