fix for ugly wheel scratches?
I had one of the rear wheels off my car yesterday while working on the brakes. I had the wheel leaning up against the wall and accidentally knocked it over. Now I have a big hideous scratch on my beautiful wheel! The wheels are newer 17" C2 Turbo style. I'm not sure if they are original or clones since the P.O. bought them. They are silver and have some sort of special finish on them to make them extra glossy. Does anyone know how this can be repaired (or at least covered up a little)? I can't tell you all how upset I am about this. Any help or suggestion would be much appreciated

Forget Wheelenhancement try Weidmans Wheels in Oroville,CA. The owner is Harvey Weidman does the work himself and is not only a total professional but a gentleman as well. Harvey refinished my 88 Carrera wheels in Grand Prix White plus anodized them and they look tremendous. Also, his wife hand paints the centers and they are a piece of art.
No, I am not affliated with Harvey but I thought I should mention my pleasure with his work.

Send your wheel out to Al Reed @ Al Reed Polishing in Anaheim, CA. He does excellent work and has the support and patronage of a large number of Porsche folk throughout the west, especially in SoCal. He has done several polishing jobs for me, and in fact, I am dropping off a set of Cup Wheels for him to refinish for me this week.
