    I had my set bead blasted and repainted just the other day, only cost be a bit over AUD$400 to get them done, They looked brand new with the new centres :)

    Have him buy you a new wheel. If a person wants to to drive a 100K car, they should be willing to deal with any damage done. Now, if it was your girlfriend.... well then, you have to make a choice. Break up with her over the wheel or lie about something else.

    Just found a few pics for you of mine, By the looks of your rim I would imagine either they would just rub the lip back to remove the marks or build the lip up by tig welding it and then machining it smooth on a lathe, Looking forward to seeing pictures of the rim repaired :)

    that seems pretty easy to repair. I had a bigger issue on one of the 355 wheels I put on my 348 and that was repaired perfectly. I could give you a recommendation for the mid atlantic USA region, but I don't think it will help in switzerland :)
