did this to my phantoms, sucks cause it sticks out so much since the black paint is off now. there is no matte black touch up paint to make it look new again, I just used some black touch up paint i had at home to cover it up; not the best but better than the bare metal showing.
I plan on redoing my barrels in winter anyway, going to powder coat them gloss black since matte black is impossible to keep clean looking.
in order to redo your wheels, you have to find a good wheel shop due to a couple factors:
-these are 2 piece wheels and you have to find a shop that knows the torque specs to put the wheels back together. I had another thread where someone posted the torque specs.
-the barrels are forged, so if you plan on powdercoating them, there are heat settings that must not be exceeded.

Hi! I had this happen and took it to our body shop guy (TNT) here in Sac. I had to take the tire off since he didnt have the machine and he filled it with a putty and sanded it smooth. Then painted with flat black and also used matte clear. it's hardly noticeable but I know where the area is if i look hard enough.
Good luck!
Good luck!

I think it's your fault for letting her borrow your car in the first place lol

Tie her hands behind her back and her feet together then gently push her forward.Proceed by dragging her by the feet ensuring her face is in contact with the ground (use something heavy to help if needed)...Do this for approx. 5 minutes and stop,look her in the eyes and ask her if she learned anything!!!Repeat if necessary.
