Anyone that screws up a Ferrari wheel should have the coin to just slap on a new one. :SHOCKED:

I just slightly curb my hfp carbone bronze rim the other day :o(. I hope I can do this right so I dont have to purchase another one...

Unfortunately I have to repair 3 of the 4 Mugen Rims on my Mugen.. the 4th was totaled.. :\

xmrfx · 09-16-2009, 09:41 PM

Mine are carbon bronze I did a small spot and realized I'm not very good at this kind of stuff...I should prob have someone that knows what there doing work on them

jaxson · 09-17-2009, 01:33 AM

I curbed my rim. If I dont clear it or touch it up, do I risk having it rust? I have seen the rims on some cars rust in the past.

bwoodward1 · 09-26-2009, 10:58 AM

good diy. as far as the "lazyness" thing goes, wouldnt it be easier to take one rim off the car than to tape off the fender and cover the whole car and still risk some overspray? im just sayin, but yea i got a small spot on one rim, might have to try this. damn odu curbs.

asiandan · 10-07-2009, 01:53 AM

Curbed mine too 2 weeks ago

Going to try this next summer. Weather right now is not helping
