About all you can do in this situation is remember somewhere in the world there's a man trying to fish with a bucket.

love to hear that and sometimes I need to remind myself of this.
In fact 2 weeks ago there was a construction crew who blocked my car into a spot. I attempted to get out and scratched my new beautiful black G80 rim. Right when it happened I was so upset...then my Dad said...woah son. if thats your biggest problem than your not doing too bad.
I went to Auto parts store and picked up sanding blocks 800, 1,500, and 2,000 grit and cleaned the area up. Then I taped off and sprayed gloss black 3-4 coats. Then I hit it with wheel clear coat for 2-3 coats.
It turned out okay..not perfect but not noticeable from a distance.
Eventually it will give me an excuse to buy rims.
