Wtf!! Finally hit the curb!
Had my car since October, not a single ding. Driving in my school lot today I barely hit the curb but it sounded BAD. I was so mad I still am! It's not too bad n it eventually was going to happen but man I am pissed. I'm so friggin careful when I drive but I gotta be more careful with this car.

Sorry. Yeah it's not that bad. Many of us have done it. Raises hand here.:( There are a number of wheel refinishers that can do on the spot repair and won't cost an arm and a leg.
Ask your dealership where you bought it. Some dealers have paintless dent removal and wheel repair companies that show up on certain days and give a dealer discount for on the spot repair. Wish had old computer to show you pix of a painted wheel I dinged bad and bent the lip on a few week old previous car.Thought for sure would need new wheel. Cost $125 to fix.

$100 to fix the wheel, many locations even will come out to you to fix it. I cannot tell where the guy blended my paint. So you can say I'm a satisfied customer. Now if only I hadn't rashed my chrome wheels.... those you have to have shipped off to California for repair because chroming is illegal pretty much everywhere else.

Don't feel bad, that's a long time with out anything happening. My girlfriend checked the curb the day after I brought the car home and it's way worse than that
