Help! Curbed wheel and no one can fix it
#16
Great news! It actually does! Man, If I knew, I'd just had gotten 3 instead of 4 rims so save some $$$.
Joking aside, the spare is pathetic looking. I took off that rashed wheel and running on my 19" winter wheel ATM.

Thanks all. The reason Carcone said they couldn't refinish it is because the finish is in "hypersilver" where the basecoat is black and the top coat is translucent silver. They said it is hard to match the colour. They don't want just touch up the wheel because they feel that it might peel.
(would have like a few more eye candy shots of the car)

Good news! I took my rim to Union Rim repair two days ago. They did the partial touch up, and the damage is barely noticeable now. John did a really great job!
I will take some pics tomorrow.
Thanks all again for your advice!

Hi Sharpman,
The winter wheel is Mulliner but the car is not. I didn't know about benefits of Mulliner until I started to hang around at the 6speed Bentley forum.
The Mulliner spec is definitely much better with nice stitching and awesome gear ****.
