Angry curbed my Volks

well, I totally f'd up and curbed my driver side wheel. These are Volk GT-S.

You guys think it is repairable, or should I go ahead and start shopping for a new wheel? Can this be repaired without losing the GTS Logo and will the shade of the repaired wheel be off a shade because of the anodized coating?



What a POS 2 weeks..first I lose my wallet out of town on business, now this week, I curb a wheel...

-peter



...yes my wheels are dirty. Was going to detail today, but now I don't even want to look at my car.

easily repairable ... just got all 4 of mine refinished -> $125 per wheel to completely strip it down to bare metal and repaint/refinish. There are probably other options just to repair the lip without doing a complete refinish...

that's some good news! But when they strip it down, then wont it look different than the other 3 wheels because of the coating that is on there? Plus, I read that I lose the "GTS" logo on the lip as well.

this sucks...

Yes if they strip it down it will probably look different ... that's one of the reasons I just did all 4...
