I nearly cried like a girl today.. - moonigan - 25-01-2012 06:07pm

... when I heard the sound of metal against stone. Big CryBig CryBig Cry Yes I've managed to kerb one of my wheels pretty badly during a low speed maneouver. I'm normally over cautious but I just mis judged my distance from the kerb.

Hopefully the person I use will have no problem with the shadow finish.

Ouch! That noise is so sickening. Hope the cost of repair does not make your eyes water too.

Done that twice before in my TT so know how you feel!

Cost around £45 to repair on the 18" wheels but they weren't shadows like you have.

Should I change from 20"s to 18"s I wonder, slightly more kerb friendly.

If you want to change I'm more than happy to swap my 18 for your 20in alloys Smile. When you get your car.

That's a big when at the mo, and SWMBO won't let me change them in reality.
