I thought so at first, but it was very superficial and 99.8% polished out..only I can notice the tiny mark and I couldn't find it yesterday for a minute, so it can't be too bad! |

Amazing that he didnt come off! Did he damage the body of your car? |

He tried to overtake me while I was overtaking someone else, and clipped the wheel & wheel arch..fortunately he stayed on (and drove off!), unfortunately the valve came off the wheel and I lost the air so had to put the spare on..
ok now though! |

Joe,
All sorted - picked up the wheel yesterday and it looks brand new - get this..�30!! Including fitting a new valve, balancing and removing/refitting the tyre.
They can deliver/collect but they are local to me (Hemel Hempstead) so I went there..it's all they do and they are very good & reasonable.

Worth making a note of for those kerb scraping occassions. |
