So my Ol' man grabs my 545 with out asking to run to the mini mart (no biggie hes my pops). He gets back and to my pleasant surprise I discover that both my passenger wheels are scraped (20 inch Breyton GTS). I ask my dad who is 60 what happened and he said that he bumped that side walk a bit. he says no biggie he will paint them. LOL FUCKING OLD MAN!! swear if he wasn't so old I would kick his ass.
Anyway what can id o guys?
I am not familiar with wheel repairs at all, can this be fixed?
Color match?
Price estimates if so?
I am really frustrated right now any help would be GREATLYY appreciated.

OOOOOOhhhhhhh, I'd be pissed at my pops! He'd never hear the end of it from me.
I am glad that at least HE'S not too upset!
Just buy a few new rims......how much could that cost anyway?

I would ask your local dealer who fixes rims for them... im sure thats completely fixable.
As far as being upset with your father, my dad has messed up my car before and I was PISSED. But in the long run I wouldn't get too mad at him its just a rim.

Don't get too upset, if it wasn't for him you wouldn't be around or have the car.
Shouldn't say those things about your dad.
But anyway, go to this place: http://www.wheeltechniques.com/
They've been in business for over 2 decades and have fixed my old wheels a few times. They're in Santa Clara off Trimble and 101.
