Kerbed rims made straight and refinished, calipers painted in a colour that survives brake heat. Wheels off, done properly, back on balanced.
Wheels are the fastest-ageing part of a car in Dubai. Kerbs in multi-storey car parks, brake dust baked on by heat, and the sheer amount of driving people do here mean a set of rims looks tired long before the paint does. Refinishing them costs a fraction of replacing them, and it is the single change most likely to make people ask whether you bought a new car.
Wheels come off the car, tyres come off the wheels, and the rim is stripped and repaired before any colour goes on.
Kerb damage is filled and reprofiled, corrosion and lacquer peel is removed back to sound metal, and the wheel is then primed, coated and cleared. Doing this with the tyre still fitted, which is how cheap mobile jobs are done, means the bead area is never properly prepared and the finish lifts from the edge inward within months.
Finish options include gloss and satin black, gunmetal and anthracite, silver and hyper silver, bronze and gold, colour matched to your body, and diamond-cut style two-tone faces.
Calipers are painted with high-temperature coatings, because normal paint on a brake caliper discolours and flakes the first time you brake hard down a ramp.
Calipers are cleaned back, masked so nothing enters the seals or the pad hardware, coated and heat cured. Optional manufacturer or custom lettering is applied and cleared over.
Red and yellow remain the most requested colours here, with black and body-matched finishes increasingly popular on cars that already have a lot going on visually.
| Package | Panels Covered | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Front End | Full front bumper, bonnet leading edge, mirror caps, headlights | Daily drivers on highway commutes. Covers roughly 90 percent of real chip damage for the lowest cost. |
| Full Front | Full bonnet, full front bumper, full front fenders, mirrors, headlights, A-pillars | Dark or metallic paint where a chip line across the bonnet would be obvious. |
| Full Body | Every painted exterior panel | New, leased or high-value cars, and anything you intend to resell with original paint. |
| High-Wear Kit | Door cups, door edges, sills, boot loading lip, rear arch behind the wheel | Add-on to any package. Cheap, and it covers the damage that actually shows on inspection. |
| Track and Off-Road Pack | Full front plus rocker panels, rear arches and lower doors | Desert and gravel use, where damage comes from below rather than head on. |
Price depends on wheel size, how much kerb damage needs repairing, and the finish. Calipers are usually quoted per set of four and often done at the same time, since the wheels are already off. Plan on the car being with us for one to two days for a full set of rims. Send photos of the damage on WhatsApp with your wheel size and we will quote before you come in.
CarBros is at Showroom No. 3, 8th Street, next to HMS Al Garhoud Hospital, Al Garhoud, Dubai, open seven days from 9:00 AM until midnight. Wheels are refitted and balanced before the car leaves.
Both, and repair comes first. Kerb damage is filled and reprofiled before any coating goes on, because paint over a gouge just makes a shiny gouge. Wheels with structural cracks or buckling are a different repair and we will tell you if that is what you have.
When high-temperature coating is used and properly heat cured, yes. Ordinary paint discolours and flakes quickly under braking heat, which is what has happened to most of the faded calipers you see on the road.
Typically one to two days for a full set of four rims, with calipers done in the same visit since the wheels are already off.
Yes. Rims can be colour matched to your paint, to a wrap finish, or to trim that has been chrome deleted, so the whole car reads as one deliberate build.
Drop the car in, or send us photos on WhatsApp and we will quote before you drive over. We are on 8th Street next to HMS Al Garhoud Hospital, open seven days from 9:00 AM until midnight.
