Super p***ed off!!! 18" M Parellel needed.

[Falkster]

Just picked my M3 up from being serviced and MOT'd and went to fill the bleeder up....only went and clipped the high kurb at the petrol station trying to get to the Ultimate pump!! I'd put tyres on that had rim protectors on aswell but not against 8 inch kurbs!!

Anyone know where I can get a single 18 inch M Parellel from???

Prob best just to get yours refurbed, or is it past that?

[Falkster]

Its only a scrape but dont really know anyone that can refurb them in my area!

Ill get a pic up.

As above, depends on damage!
but refurb is the best route!

[Falkster]

Youll prolly say its not that bad

Mate, I can sympathise, I've scraped both my Alpinas on a pavement recently am I'm gutted

If you can go with the re-furb, places do take mail/posted wheels, I have previously used http://www.lap-tab.co.uk/ as an example

Cheers mate! Ive just seen lap-tab and their work looks fantastic but would really like it if I could find a mobile service to take out all the grief involved.

do it yourself, get some 400 (wet)sand paper and sand the area down, Aluminium is soft and easy to polish, once its sanded flat begin to use 600, then 800 and finally 1000 or higher (wet),,then once flattened use metal polish and a soft cloth to get a shiney finish, or at least blend it in with the surrounding area which in your case is probably lacqured.

No worries dude, I had a mission and a half with mine...did a day trip to Brum from Somerset to get them done in a day, problem with having tyres etc - they have to come off before you can do it and you can't keep driving the car (I dont have that many wheels!!!)

Good luck anyway...
