HRE S101 curb rash

Hey all, I have a set of new S101s on my C63 AMG and just got some curb rash (not too deep) on the front left wheel over the weekend. I already called HRE and it will cost ~$650 to send back for repair (and take around a month). The outer lip is gloss black. I live in the Philly area and wanted to ask for recommendations on other options other than sending back to HRE for repair. Pic attached. Thanks

If you can live with the rash, just touch it up. But honestly, I'd ship it back to HRE and let them hadle the repair.

Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists (AWRS) can make that go away for way less than $650. You'll be the only one to know it happened. And you will have trouble finding the repaired section yourself.

If you go with a refinish from AWRS, it'll be as good as new. Good luck.

By the way, wrong forum.

Just as an FYI, as I'm sure you know, please note any existing warranty on the wheels will be voided once the repair is undertaken by anyone outside of our facility.

We strongly recommend having your wheel repaired here; however we understand this is an inconvenience. Our next best suggestion is to find someone qualified with an honorable reputation in your area that can offer some sort of warranty following the repair.
