Suggestion
It's easy to get the wheels refurbished, just ask your OPC to recommend a dealer, it's not even that expensive, but if it was me I'd leave it.

Re-laquered/painted wheels never seem to last in my experience, although they should last a year ok if you are changing soon.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Damn! Kerbed one yesterday - ironically at my OPC! Took out a small chip - looks awful. Can they be fixed? Do I replace? Do I buy a set of Sport Techs? (I hope to buy a 997 C4 in July 2005) Spizz

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Like the name, will you call yourself Spizz Energy at some later date? Sorry, totally irrelavent to thread!

POST 3Original post

I feel for you, it's a bad day when the pride & joy gets a bash, mine was pebble dashed by a passing biker last year B*#*er. It's easy to get the wheels refurbished, just ask your OPC to recommend a dealer, it's not even that expensive, but if it was me I'd leave it. Re-laquered/painted wheels never seem to last in my experience, although they should last a year ok if you are changing soon. Having said this I only have experience of having this done on two non-Porkers, so I'm happy to be proved wrong if any one else has had a successfull long term repair. Once you have lived with it for a few weeks you won't even see it any more. Yours in sympathy. Grant

POST 4Original post

I've suggested one place you might get them sorted in the 996 MOT thread on the Scotland Forum. If you want more you might get a better result asking on the Boxa.net forum than here: they seem to be more active.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Spizz, If you haven't tried already get a quote from your local 'Chips Away' fanchise. The delivery driver dinged my wifes alloys last year and CA did a fantastic job for about £50 if my memory serves me correctly.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Guys - just back from two weeks' break. Being neurotic, I think that I will replace the wheel and refurb the damaged one and sell it. Ebay, do you think? Spizz PS Flaming Eye - was thinking about rebranding as Spizz Skiing '04. What do you think?
