Angry wheel scratch. arrrrghh!
less than 1000 miles and already a nasty scratch! why god? why?

c230K - C7 wheel pkg.

i have no idea how it happened or when. just noticed it today.


yes i know wheel is dirty. it rained all day...

what can i do?? anything to fix/hide? i guess the clear coat has been compromised. should i do anything?

this could have been there a while i suppose. that's good - means it's not very obvious when clean (most of the time)...

You can have the rim refinnished for around $50. Do a search on this forum, this has been posted recently, including US based repairer. I only now people in Aust. that do it.
