Does it go through to bare metal? If it's just a "scratch" it should be easy to fix. If it's deep you may need a Wheel refinisher to look at it. I have never used anyone to fix a wheel so can't recomend. But did a Google: http://www.awrswheelrepair.com/frontrangeco/


Could also pop the tires off and have them all powder coated....

It is about a 2" scrape on the edge of the wheel. It is down to bare metal on the anthricite wheel. I submited for a quote at the site you suggested. I will see what they come up with.

Thanks for the input.

MINI Members South

should start planning for YY2$11 - Yalla Yalla 2011.

This year's event (our 10th Annual, believe it or not) will be held as follows:

1. Sunday, September 11th - Broncos play on Monday night.
2. Meetup @ 9:45 in Morrison, CO on Main St. (Tour leaves at 10)
3. Mystery Destinatiion and fun, but the theme is, of course, Oktoberfest!
4. $2 entry fee per car, payable at the start.
5. This is a TOUR, not a RALLYE or GIMMICK. No copilot is needed but of course, they are encouraged.

See www.MINI5280.org for details

See our Yalla Yalla 2011 Facebook Page for discussion and summary

Please sign up in the MINI5280 Calendar right here in NAM.

Ok, MINIs of southern Colorado. Who is all going to MITMs? I have not seen much on-line traffic. Will the south have a big showing at MITM. I hope so. We will be bringing both MINIs (MCS/Countryman). Take a pass on the first Saturday car show and head on up to Winter Park. Hope to see you there.
