yeh, sort the curbing and respray the whole wheel in gloss black
or a quick fix (bodge) is to use black pernament (sp) marker on the curb marks untill you can afford to get them all refurbed

Either way I don't see it being your problem? You had an accident, this stuff happens! If you had hit an other car would you pay for the repairs yourself? Ofcourse not!
