All 4 of my wheels have minor damage from kerbs or carelessness after a tyre change. The fact that they're diamond cut makes spot repairs impractical, I'm thinking about having all 4 powder coated.
What would you do? I do quite like the diamond cut look but seems a bit more trouble than it's worth if you're prone to a bit of impatient parking like I am...but also fancy a change.
I don't know whether to a) go ahead with the powder coating and b) if I do, what colour to go for. Whether to stick to the nice bright silver which does look nice on the silver car, or go for something darker that would wear a bit of dirt slightly better....
These are the wheels
Can't really justify the cost right now as the damage is really quite minor - just annoys me - but would look to get it done maybe in the autumn as we head into the 'clean it less' season!
Also as a ballpark figure what am I looking at, c. £100 a wheel?
Thoughts?
